SUBJECT: GRB 190109A: Swift detection of a burst
DATE: 19/01/09 05:25:13 GMT
FROM: Scott Barthelmy at NASA/GSFC
J.D. Gropp (PSU), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC),
M. J. Moss (George Washington University), D. M. Palmer (LANL) and
A. Tohuvavohu (PSU) report on behalf of the Neil Gehrels Swift
Observatory Team:
At 05:12:41 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
located GRB 190109A (trigger=882747). Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
The BAT on-board calculated location is
RA, Dec 33.218, +38.110, which is
RA(J2000) = 02h 12m 52s
Dec(J2000) = +38d 06' 36"
with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including
systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve shows several peaks
with a total duration of about 70 sec. The peak count rate
was ~700 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~8 sec after the trigger.
The XRT began observing the field at 05:15:30.6 UT, 168.9 seconds after
the BAT trigger. Using promptly downlinked data we find a bright,
fading, uncatalogued X-ray source located at RA, Dec 33.20430, 38.10690
which is equivalent to:
RA(J2000) = 02h 12m 49.03s
Dec(J2000) = +38d 06' 24.8"
with an uncertainty of 3.9 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This
location is 40 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. No
spectrum from the promptly downlinked event data is yet available to
determine the column density.
The initial flux in the 2.5 s image was 2.06e-09 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.2-10
keV).
UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 150 seconds with the White filter
starting 180 seconds after the BAT trigger. No credible afterglow candidate has
been found in the initial data products. The 2.7'x2.7' sub-image covers 100% of
the XRT error circle. The typical 3-sigma upper limit has been about 19.6 mag.
The 8'x8' region for the list of sources generated on-board covers 100% of the
XRT error circle. The list of sources is typically complete to about 18 mag. No
correction has been made for the expected extinction corresponding to E(B-V) of
0.05.
Burst Advocate for this burst is J.D. Gropp (jdg44 AT psu.edu).
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.)

P.A. Evans (U. Leicester) reports on behalf of the Swift-XRT team:
Using promptly downlinked XRT event data for GRB 190109A, we find an
enhanced XRT position of the afterglow: RA, Dec: 33.2020, 38.1081 which
is equivalent to:
RA (J2000) = 02 12 48.48
Dec (J2000) = +38 06 29.1
with an uncertainty of 2.0 arcseconds (radius, 90% confidence).
Analysis of the promptly available data is online at
http://www.swift.ac.uk/sper/882747.
Position enhancement is is described by Goad et al. (2007, A&A, 476,

J.P. Osborne, A.P. Beardmore, P.A. Evans and M.R. Goad (U. Leicester)
report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team.
Using 1045 s of XRT Photon Counting mode data and 1 UVOT
images for GRB 190109A, 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 = 33.20216, +38.10852 which is equivalent
to:
RA (J2000): 02h 12m 48.52s
Dec (J2000): +38d 06' 30.7"
with an uncertainty of 1.8 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

(INAF-IASFPA), A. Melandri (INAF-OAB), P. D'Avanzo (INAF-OAB), A.
Tohuvavohu (PSU), S. J. LaPorte (PSU), J.A. Kennea (PSU), J.P. Osborne
(U. Leicester) and J.D. Gropp report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team:
We have analysed 6.1 ks of XRT data for GRB 190109A (Gropp et al. GCN
Circ. 23642), from 175 s to 13.0 ks after the BAT trigger. The data
comprise 291 s in Windowed Timing (WT) mode with the remainder in
Photon Counting (PC) mode. The enhanced XRT position for this burst was
given by Osborne et al. (GCN Circ. 23643).
The late-time light curve (from T0+4.8 ks) can be modelled with a
power-law decay with a decay index of alpha=0.8 (+/-0.3).
A spectrum formed from the WT mode data can be fitted with an absorbed
power-law with a photon spectral index of 1.87 (+/-0.04). The
best-fitting absorption column is 9.5 (+1.3, -1.2) x 10^20 cm^-2, in
excess of the Galactic value of 5.1 x 10^20 cm^-2 (Willingale et al.
2013). The PC mode spectrum has a photon index of 1.88 (+0.11, -0.09)
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 3.5 x 10^-11 (3.8 x 10^-11) erg
cm^-2 count^-1.
A summary of the PC-mode spectrum is thus:
Total column: 5.1 (+2.1, -0.0) x 10^20 cm^-2
Galactic foreground: 5.1 x 10^20 cm^-2
Excess significance: <1.6 sigma
Photon index: 1.88 (+0.11, -0.09)
If the light curve continues to decay with a power-law decay index of
0.8, the count rate at T+24 hours will be 0.010 count s^-1,
corresponding to an observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux of 3.6 x
10^-13 (4.0 x 10^-13) erg cm^-2 s^-1.
The results of the XRT-team automatic analysis are available at

Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 190109A (trigger #882747)
(Gropp, et al., GCN Circ. 23642). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 33.213, 38.111 deg, which is
RA(J2000) = 02h 12m 51.2s
Dec(J2000) = +38d 06' 39.5"
with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 28%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows several overlapping peaks starting at ~T+1 sec,
peaking at ~T+40 sec, and returning to baseline at ~T+200 sec.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 115.0 +- 33.5 sec (estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T+5.86 to T+205.36 sec (with a 1.03 sec gap
in the data at T+111.97 sec) is best fit by a power law with an exponential cutoff.
This fit gives a photon index 0.36 +- 0.47, and Epeak of 49.7 +- 4.0 keV
(chi squared 46.05 for 56 d.o.f.). For this model the total fluence
in the 15-150 keV band is 5.5 +- 0.3 x 10^-6 erg/cm2 and the 1-sec peak flux
measured from T+38.82 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 1.9 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec.
A fit to a simple power law gives a photon index of 1.86 +- 0.08
(chi squared 87.76 for 57 d.o.f.). All the quoted errors are
at the 90% confidence level.

A. von Kienlin (MPE) reports on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team:
"At 05:12:49.45 UT on 09 January 2019, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
triggered and located GRB 190109A (trigger 568703574 / 190109217), which was
also detected by the Swift/BAT (Gropp et al. 2019, GCN 23642)
The GBM on-ground location is consistent with the Swift position.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight at the GBM trigger time is 65 degrees.
The GBM light curve shows a structured emission
with a duration (T90) of about 120 s (50-300 keV).
The time-averaged spectrum from T0-4.096 s to T0+114.690 s is
best fit by a Band function with Epeak = 46.8 +/- 2.2 keV, alpha = 1.3 +/- 0.3,
and beta = -2.71 +/- 0.13
The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is
(7.6 +/- 0.4)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1.024-sec peak photon flux measured
starting from T0+30.91 s in the 10-1000 keV band
is 2.6 +/- 0.2 ph/s/cm^2.
The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary;
final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog."
