Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 14630 SUBJECT: GRB 130513A: a long GRB detected by INTEGRAL DATE: 13/05/13 09:10:32 GMT FROM: Sandro Mereghetti at IASF/CNR S.Mereghetti (IASF-Milano), D.Gotz (CEA, Saclay), C.Ferrigno, E.Bozzo, P.Bordas (ISDC, Versoix), and J.Borkowski (CAMK, Torun) on behalf of the IBAS Localization Team report: a gamma ray burst lasting about 50 s has been detected by IBAS in the IBIS/ISGRI data at 07:38:00 UT of May 13. The refined coordinates (J2000) are: R.A.= 144.77525 deg DEC.= -5.24393 deg with an uncertainty of 2 arcmin (90% c.l.). The burst had a peak flux of 0.7 counts/cm2/s (20-200 keV, 1-s integration time) and a fluence in the same energy range of about 1e-6 erg/cmq. A plot of the light curve will be posted at http://ibas.iasf-milano.inaf.it/IBAS_Results.html

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 14635 SUBJECT: GRB 130513A: Swift-XRT detection of the afterglow. DATE: 13/05/14 08:42:09 GMT FROM: Phil Evans at U of Leicester P.A. Evans (U. Leicester) and F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team: We have analysed 3.9 ks of XRT data for the INTEGRAL-detected burst: GRB 130513A (Mereghetti et al., GCN 14630), from 25.4 ks to 37.2 ks after the INTEGRAL trigger. The data are entirely in Photon Counting (PC) mode. An X-ray source is detected within the INTEGRAL error circle. Using 2486 s of PC mode data and 2 UVOT images, we find an enhanced XRT position (using the XRT-UVOT alignment and matching UVOT field sources to the USNO-B1 catalogue): RA, Dec = 144.76167, -5.24171 which is equivalent to: RA (J2000): 09h 39m 02.80s Dec(J2000): -05d 14' 30.1" with an uncertainty of 2.7 arcsec (radius, 90% confidence). This position is 49 arcsec from the INTEGRAL position. The source is fading, and the light curve can be modelled with a power-law of index 3.3 (+1.1, -0.45). We therefore conclude that it is the afterglow of the GRB. We detect only 24 photons from this source, so the spectrum is poorly constrained. The photon index is 2.9 (+2.1, -1.1); the absorption is consistent with the Galactic value of 3.4e20 cm^-2 (Kalberla et al. 2005) however within the errors on the spectral fit, could be as high as 5e21 cm^-2. The results of the XRT-team automatic analysis are available at http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_products/00020274. This circular is an official product of the Swift-XRT team.

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 14639 SUBJECT: GRB 130513A: GROND observations DATE: 13/05/14 16:20:57 GMT FROM: Alexander Kann at TLS Tautenburg S. Schmidl, D. A. Kann (both TLS Tautenburg) and J. Greiner (MPE Garching) report on behalf of the GROND team: We observed the field GRB 130513A (INTEGRAL trigger 6842; Mereghetti et al., GCN 14630) simultaneously in g'r'i'z'JHKs with GROND (Greiner et al. 2008, PASP 120, 405) mounted at the 2.2 m MPG/ESO telescope at La Silla Observatory (Chile). Observations started in twilight at 22:54:57 UT on May 13th, 15.3 hours after the IBAS trigger. They were performed at an average seeing of 1".0 and at an average airmass of 1.1. Inside the 2".7 refined XRT error circle (Evans et al., GCN 14635), we do not detect any sources. Based on an observation with 1500 s integration time in g'r'i'z' and 1200 s integration time in JHK, centered at 0.6959 days after the trigger, we estimate preliminary 3-sigma upper limits (all in AB system) of g' > 25.4, r' > 24.9, i' > 24.2, z' > 23.9, J > 21.4, H > 20.6 and K > 20.2. We note that if the XRT source is indeed the afterglow, then it is very faint optically. Galactic extinction is negligible. Given magnitudes are calibrated against GROND zero points (g'r'i'z') as well as 2MASS field stars (JHK) and are not corrected for the expected Galactic foreground extinction corresponding to a reddening of E_(B-V)=0.03 mag in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 14641 SUBJECT: GRB 130513A: Swift/UVOT Upper Limits DATE: 13/05/14 17:31:32 GMT FROM: Frank Marshall at GSFC F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC) reports on behalf of the Swift team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 130513A 25261 s after the INTEGRAL trigger (Mereghetti et al., GCN Circ. 14630). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position (Evans and Marshall GCN Circ. 14635) is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. Preliminary 3-sigma upper limits using the UVOT photometric system (Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the initial exposures are: Filter T_start(s) T_stop(s) Exp(s) Mag white 25885 32269 1218 >21.9 v 26510 32924 1267 >20.6 u 25261 37138 1399 >21.6 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.03 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).

For a source within the Swift-XRT error circle (Evans & Marshall, GCN Circular 14635), in comparison with USNO-B1 and 2MASS, we obtain the following upper limits (3-sigma): r' > 22.64 i' > 22.65 Z > 21.34 Y > 20.65 J > 20.26 H > 19.71 These magnitudes are in the AB system and not corrected for Galactic extinction in the direction of the GRB.
