SUBJECT: GRB 140623A / iPTF14cyb: Fermi GBM detection
DATE: 14/06/24 14:58:54 GMT
FROM: Andreas von Kienlin at MPE
A. von Kienlin (MPE) reports on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team:
"At 05:22:06.60 UT on 23 June 2014, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
triggered
and located GRB 140623A (trigger 425193729 / 140623224), which was observed
by the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory beginning 11 minutes after
trigger time, and was reported in GCN 16425 (Bhalerao et al. 2014) as
iPTF14cvb.
The on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger
data, is RA = 202.8, DEC = 75.8 (J2000 degrees,
equivalent to 13h 31m, 75d 48'), with an uncertainty
of 5.6 degrees (radius, 1-sigma containment,
statistical only; there is additionally a systematic
error which is currently estimated to be 2 to 3 degrees).
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 32 degrees.
The GBM light curve shows a multiple-peak structure
with a duration (T90) of about 110 s (50-300 keV).
The time-averaged spectrum from T0-49.2 s to T0+73.7 s is
well fit by a power law function with an exponential
high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -1.46 +/- 0.1 and
the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 350(+220/-100) keV
The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is
(6.8 +/- 0.6)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1.024-sec peak photon flux measured
starting from T0-3.65 s in the 10-1000 keV band
is 1.9 +/- 0.2 ph/s/cm^2.
The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary;
final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog."

V. D'Elia (ASDC), F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC), L. Izzo (URoma/ICRA) &
D. Malesani (DARK/NBI) report on behalf of the Swift team:
Following the report of a potential optical afterglow iPTF14cyb
(Bhalerao et al., GCN Circ. 16442) to the Fermi/GBM-detected burst GRB
140623A (von Kienlin, GCN Circ. 16450), Swift began a follow-up
observation of the iPTF field.
We have analyzed all the 3.0 ks of XRT data for GRB 140623A, from
38.7 ks to 49.6 ks after the Fermi/GBM trigger. The data are entirely
in Photon Counting (PC) mode. An X-ray source is detected at a
position consistent with the candidate optical afterglow (Bhalerao et
al., GCN Circ. 16442) within the Fermi/GBM error circle.
Using 1153 s of PC mode data and 1 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 = 225.47927, +81.19049
which is equivalent to:
RA (J2000): 15h 01m 55.02s
Dec(J2000): +81d 11' 25.7"
with an uncertainty of 5.8 arcsec (radius, 90% confidence). This
position is 5.0 arcsec from the the optical counterpart iPTF14cyb, and
consistent with it. We cannot determine at the present time whether
the source is fading.
The results of the XRT-team automatic analysis are available at
http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_products/00020388.
The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 140423A
38708 s after the GBM trigger. No optical afterglow consistent with
the optical position (Bhalerao et al. GCN Circ. 16442) 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) are:
Filter T_start(s) T_stop(s) Exp(s) Mag
u 38708 44173 925 >22.0
white 38926 44863 851 >21.9
The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction
due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.037 in the direction of the burst
(Schlegel et al. 1998).

SUBJECT: GRB 140623A: further Swift-XRT observations

FROM: Valerio D'Elia at ASDC
V. D'Elia (ASDC), L. Izzo (URoma/ICRA) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team:
We report further Swift-XRT observations of GRB 140623A (A. von
Kienlin, GCN Circ 16450; Bhalerao et al., GCN Circ. 16442). A new
exposure of 5 ks has been secured 285 ks after the Fermi/GBM
detection. The X-ray counterpart detected by D'Elia et al. (GCN Circ.
16451) is no longer present down to a three sigma upper limit of
2.2E-3 cts/s.
We thus conclude that the source reported in D'Elia et al. (GCN Circ.
16451) is the X-ray afterglow of GRB 140623A.
