SUBJECT: GRB 181110A: Swift detection of a burst with an optical counterpart
DATE: 18/11/10 08:59:09 GMT
FROM: Kim Page at U.of Leicester
P. A. Evans (U Leicester), K. L. Page (U Leicester) and
T. Sakamoto (AGU) report on behalf of the Neil Gehrels Swift
Observatory Team:
At 08:43:31 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
located GRB 181110A (trigger=871316). Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
The BAT on-board calculated location is
RA, Dec 302.342, -36.903 which is
RA(J2000) = 20h 09m 22s
Dec(J2000) = -36d 54' 08"
with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including
systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve showed a multi-peaked
structure with a duration of about 150 sec. The peak count rate
was ~3870 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~10 sec after the trigger.
The XRT began observing the field at 08:44:35.2 UT, 64.0 seconds after
the BAT trigger. Using promptly downlinked data we find a bright,
uncatalogued X-ray source located at RA, Dec 302.31711, -36.89632 which
is equivalent to:
RA(J2000) = 20h 09m 16.11s
Dec(J2000) = -36d 53' 46.8"
with an uncertainty of 3.7 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This
location is 75 arcseconds from the BAT onboard position, within the BAT
error circle. This position may be improved as more data are received;
the latest position is available at http://www.swift.ac.uk/sper. We
cannot determine whether the source is fading at the present time. No
spectrum from the promptly downlinked event data is yet available to
determine the column density.
The initial flux in the 0.1 s image was 5.82e-08 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.2-10
keV).
UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 150 seconds with the White filter
starting 72 seconds after the BAT trigger. There is a candidate afterglow in
the rapidly available 2.7'x2.7' sub-image at
RA(J2000) = 20:09:16.28 = 302.31782
DEC(J2000) = -36:53:47.8 = -36.89661
with a 90%-confidence error radius of about 0.63 arc sec. This position is 3.3
arc sec. from the center of the XRT error circle. The estimated magnitude is
18.39 with a 1-sigma error of about 0.15. No correction has been made for the
expected extinction corresponding to E(B-V) of 0.07.
Burst Advocate for this burst is P. A. Evans (pae9 AT star.le.ac.uk).
Please contact the BA by email if you require additional information
regarding Swift followup of this burst. In extremely urgent cases, after
trying the Burst Advocate, you can contact the Swift PI by phone (see
Swift TOO web site for information: http://www.swift.psu.edu/too.html.)

We performed optical imaging polarimetry to the field of the
GRB 181110A (Evans et al. GCN 23413) from 2018-11-10 08:44:48 UT
(77 seconds after the trigger) with HOWPol attached to the 1.5-m
Kanata telescope at Higashi-Hiroshima Observatory, Japan. Although
the first frames were severely affected by bright twilight sky,
in later frames a possible bright optical counterpart of the GRB
appeared at the position consistent with the Swift-UVOT observation
(Evans et al. GCN 23413). The magnitude of the counterpart was
R~14 mag (USNO B1.0) at 940 seconds after the trigger, suggesting
it brightened by ~4 mag within ~15 minutes. It further brightened
slightly (by a few 0.1 mag) and then declined smoothly.
Further analysis is ongoing.

M.R. Goad, J.P. Osborne, A.P. Beardmore and P.A. Evans (U. Leicester)
report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team.
Using 2774 s of XRT Photon Counting mode data and 4 UVOT
images for GRB 181110A, we find an astrometrically corrected X-ray
position (using the XRT-UVOT alignment and matching UVOT field sources
to the USNO-B1 catalogue): RA, Dec = 302.31802, -36.89665 which is equivalent
to:
RA (J2000): 20h 09m 16.32s
Dec (J2000): -36d 53' 47.9"
with an uncertainty of 1.4 arcsec (radius, 90% confidence).
This position may be improved as more data are received. The latest
position can be viewed at http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_positions. Position
enhancement is described by Goad et al. (2007, A&A, 476, 1401) and Evans
et al. (2009, MNRAS, 397, 1177).

Melandri (INAF-OAB), P. D'Avanzo (INAF-OAB), A. Tohuvavohu (PSU) and
P.A. Evans report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team:
We have analysed 7.4 ks of XRT data for GRB 181110A (Evans et al. GCN
Circ. 23413), from 67 s to 24.8 ks after the BAT trigger. The data
comprise 260 s in Windowed Timing (WT) mode with the remainder in
Photon Counting (PC) mode. The enhanced XRT position for this burst was
given by Goad et al. (GCN Circ. 23417).
The late-time light curve (from T0+5.2 ks) can be modelled with a
power-law decay with a decay index of alpha=2.10 (+/-0.14).
A spectrum formed from the WT mode data can be fitted with an absorbed
power-law with a photon spectral index of 1.88 (+/-0.04). The
best-fitting absorption column is 8.6 (+1.0, -0.9) x 10^20 cm^-2,
consistent with the Galactic value of 7.7 x 10^20 cm^-2 (Willingale et
al. 2013). The PC mode spectrum has a photon index of 1.74 (+0.07,
-0.06) and a best-fitting absorption column consistent with the
Galactic value. The counts to observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux
conversion factor deduced from this spectrum is 3.8 x 10^-11 (4.3 x
10^-11) erg cm^-2 count^-1.
A summary of the PC-mode spectrum is thus:
Total column: 7.7 (+1.5, -0.0) x 10^20 cm^-2
Galactic foreground: 7.7 x 10^20 cm^-2
Excess significance: <1.6 sigma
Photon index: 1.74 (+0.07, -0.06)
If the light curve continues to decay with a power-law decay index of
2.10, the count rate at T+24 hours will be 2.2 x 10^-3 count s^-1,
corresponding to an observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux of 8.3 x
10^-14 (9.3 x 10^-14) erg cm^-2 s^-1.
The results of the XRT-team automatic analysis are available at
http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_products/00871316.

N. P. M. Kuin (UCL-MSSL) and P. A. Evans (U. Leicester)
report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team:
The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 181110A
72 s after the BAT trigger (Evans et al., GCN Circ. 23413).
The GRB was detected in ground photometry (Yamanaka et al., GCN
Circ. 23414; Murata et al., GCN Circ. 23415; Denisenko et al.
GCN Circ. 23416). The UVOT detects a source consistent
with the XRT position (Goad et al. GCN Circ. 23417) in the initial
UVOT exposures.
The preliminary UVOT position is:
RA (J2000) = 20:09:16.27 = 302.31781 (deg.)
Dec (J2000) = -36:53:47.9 = -36.89664 (deg.)
with an estimated uncertainty of 0.46 arc sec. (radius, 90% confidence).
Preliminary detections using the UVOT photometric system
(Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the early exposures
are:
Filter T_start(s) T_stop(s) Exp(s) Mag
white 72 222 147 18.52 +/- 0.07
v 614 634 19 16.09 +/- 0.13

m2 1068 1088 20 14.66 +/- 0.11
w2 1018 1038 20 15.74 +/- 0.14
The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction
due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.07 in the direction of the burst
(Schlegel et al. 1998).
The source showed a rebrightening with a late peak at around 1100s after
the trigger.

Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 181110A (trigger #871316)
(Evans et al., GCN Circ. 23413). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 302.330, -36.878 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 20h 09m 19.2s
Dec(J2000) = -36d 52' 41.4"
with an uncertainty of 1.4 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 100%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts
at ~T-110 s and ends at ~T+130 s. The main peak occurs at ~T+25 s.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 138.4 +- 10.9 sec (estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T-109.3 to T+129.8 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
2.02 +- 0.05. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 9.9 +- 0.3 x 10^-6 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+25.03 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 3.7 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.

ESO-VLT UT2 equipped with the X-shooter spectrograph. We acquired four
600 second spectra on UT 2018-11-11 between 00:36 and 01:21,
approximately 16 hours after the GRB. The optical afterglow was R~20.4
at this time.
Continuum is detected in the reduced spectrum across the entire spectral
range of the instrument (blue limit of 3000 Angstroms). Several weak
absorption features are also detected: in particular, we identify Mg II
and Fe II at a common redshift of z=1.505, identifying this as the most
likely redshift of the GRB. An additional intervening system is also
identified from (probable) Mg II absorption at z=0.28.
We acknowledge the ESO observing staff at Paranal, including Stephane
Brillant and Eleonora Sani.

simultaneously in g'r'i'z'JHK with GROND (Greiner et al. 2008, PASP 120, 405) mounted

Observations started at 00:01 UT, 15.5 hrs after the GRB trigger, and were performed
under poor seeing conditions, 4.1“, and at an average airmass of 1.2.
We detect a source at a position consistent with the X-ray and optical afterglow
(Evans et al., GCN #23413; Kuin et al., GCN #23419). Based on the first 17 min of
total exposures in g'r'i'z' and 20 min in JHK, we measure the following preliminary

The long GRB 181110A (Swift-BAT trigger #871316: (Evans et al.,
GCN 23413; Lien et al., GCN 23420; T0(BAT)= 08:43:31.320 UT)
was detected by Konus-Wind (KW) in the waiting mode.
A Bayesian block analysis of the KW waiting mode data in
the 22-380 keV band reveals a count rate increase in the interval
from ~T0(BAT)-42 s to ~T0(BAT)+98 s.
No statistically significant emission has been detected above
380 keV.
The KW light curve of this burst is available at
http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB181110A/
Modeling the KW 3-channel spectrum (from T0(BAT)-36 s to T0(BAT)+32 s)
by a power law with exponential cutoff (CPL) model
dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E*(2+alpha)/Ep)
yields alpha = -1.63(-0.26,+0.34) and Ep = 48(-27,+14) keV.
The total burst fluence in the 15-1500 keV band
is (1.1 ± 0.2)x10^-5 erg/cm^2.
Assuming z = 1.505 (Perley et al., GCN 23421) and a standard cosmology
model with H_0 = 70 km/s/Mpc, Omega_M = 0.30, and Omega_Lambda = 0.70,
the burst isotropic energy release E_iso is ~1.1x10^53 erg (1-10000 keV,
rest frame), and the rest-frame peak energy is ~120 keV.
All the quoted errors are estimated at the 1 sigma confidence level.
All the presented results are preliminary.
