Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 27756 SUBJECT: GRB 200519A: Swift detection of a burst with an optical afterglow DATE: 20/05/19 11:42:49 GMT FROM: Kim Page at U.of Leicester B. Sbarufatti (PSU), S. B. Cenko (GSFC), C. Gronwall (PSU), J.D. Gropp (PSU), N. J. Klingler (PSU), A. Y. Lien (GSFC/UMBC), F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC) and K. L. Page (U Leicester) report on behalf of the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Team: At 11:20:23 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located GRB 200519A (trigger=973140). Swift slewed immediately to the burst. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA, Dec 255.334, -30.380 which is RA(J2000) = 17h 01m 20s Dec(J2000) = -30d 22' 47" 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 80 sec. The peak count rate was ~37000 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~23 sec after the trigger. The XRT began observing the field at 11:21:13.3 UT, 49.6 seconds after the BAT trigger. XRT found a bright, uncatalogued X-ray source located at RA, Dec 255.3327, -30.3782 which is equivalent to: RA(J2000) = 17h 01m 19.85s Dec(J2000) = -30d 22' 41.5" with an uncertainty of 4.7 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This location is 7.6 arcseconds from the BAT onboard position, within the BAT error circle. No event data are yet available to determine the column density using X-ray spectroscopy. The initial flux in the 2.5 s image was 1.36e-08 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.2-10 keV). UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 150 seconds with the White filter starting 57 seconds after the BAT trigger. There is a candidate afterglow in the rapidly available 2.7'x2.7' sub-image at RA(J2000) = 17:01:20.00 = 255.33335 DEC(J2000) = -30:22:40.9 = -30.37803 with a 90%-confidence error radius of about 0.61 arc sec. This position is 2.1 arc sec. from the center of the XRT error circle. The estimated magnitude is 15.38 with a 1-sigma error of about 0.14. No correction has been made for the expected extinction corresponding to E(B-V) of 0.47. Burst Advocate for this burst is B. Sbarufatti (bxs60 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/)

Strausbaugh (U. of the Virgin Islands), A. Cucchiara (U. of the Virgin Islands/College of Marin) report on behalf of a larger collaboration: We observed Swift GRB 200519A (Sbarufatti et al., GCN 27756) with the LCO 1-m Sinistro instrument at the Siding Spring Observatory Australia site, on May 9, from 12:39 to 13:02 UT (corresponding to 1.05 to 1.38 hours from the GRB trigger time) with the Bessel R and I filters. We performed a series of 5x120s exposures in R and I. We detect an optical source in stacked images at the UVOT afterglow candidate position position. Using the USNO-B.1 catalog as reference, we calculate the following magnitudes: R = 17.07 +/- 0.02 I = 16.69 +/- 0.02 These magnitudes are not corrected for galactic extinction.

Evans and M.R. Goad (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team. Using 832 s of XRT Photon Counting mode data and 3 UVOT images for GRB 200519A, 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 = 255.33318, -30.37824 which is equivalent to: RA (J2000): 17h 01m 19.96s Dec (J2000): -30d 22' 41.7" 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 et al. (2009, MNRAS, 397, 1177). This circular was automatically generated, and is an official product of the Swift-XRT team.

Leicester), K.L. Page (U. Leicester), A.P. Beardmore (U. Leicester), P. D'Avanzo (INAF-OAB), M.G. Bernardini (INAF-OAB), E. Ambrosi (INAF-IASFPA) , J. D. Gropp (PSU), J.A. Kennea (PSU) and B. Sbarufatti report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team: We have analysed 8.2 ks of XRT data for GRB 200519A (Sbarufatti et al. GCN Circ. 27756), from 42 s to 35.4 ks after the BAT trigger. The data comprise 970 s in Windowed Timing (WT) mode (the first 5 s were taken while Swift was slewing) with the remainder in Photon Counting (PC) mode. The enhanced XRT position for this burst was given by Osborne et al. (GCN Circ. 27761). The light curve can be modelled with a power-law decay with a decay index of alpha=1.16 (+/-0.05). A spectrum formed from the WT mode data can be fitted with an absorbed power-law with a photon spectral index of 1.902 (+/-0.029). The best-fitting absorption column is 4.35 (+0.17, -0.16) x 10^21 cm^-2, in excess of the Galactic value of 3.3 x 10^21 cm^-2 (Willingale et al. 2013). The PC mode spectrum has a photon index of 1.75 (+/-0.08) and a best-fitting absorption column of 4.7 (+/-0.5) x 10^21 cm^-2. The counts to observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux conversion factor deduced from this spectrum is 4.7 x 10^-11 (6.6 x 10^-11) erg cm^-2 count^-1. A summary of the PC-mode spectrum is thus: Total column: 4.7 (+/-0.5) x 10^21 cm^-2 Galactic foreground: 3.3 x 10^21 cm^-2 Excess significance: 4.4 sigma Photon index: 1.75 (+/-0.08) If the light curve continues to decay with a power-law decay index of 1.16, the count rate at T+24 hours will be 0.11 count s^-1, corresponding to an observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux of 5.1 x 10^-12 (7.1 x 10^-12) erg cm^-2 s^-1. The results of the XRT-team automatic analysis are available at http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_products/00973140. This circular is an official product of the Swift-XRT team.

Bhattacharya (IUCAA), V. Bhalerao (IIT-B), A. R. Rao (IUCAA/TIFR) and S. Vadawale (PRL) report on behalf of the AstroSat CZTI collaboration: Analysis of AstroSat CZTI data showed the detection of a long GRB 200519A, which was also detected by Swift (Sbarufatti B. et al., GCN #27756), iTelescope (Kong A.et al., GCN # 27757), LCO (Strausbaugh R. et al., GCN # 27759), BOOTES-3/YA (Hu Y. et al., GCN # 27760), 1.3m DFOT (Kumar A. et al., GCN # 27764) and Global MASTER-Net (Lipunov V. et al., GCN # 27765). The source was clearly detected in the 40-200 keV energy range. Of the ~80-second duration reported by Swift/BAT, CZTI detected only the brightest segment peaking at 2020-05-19 11:20:46.500 UT. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 983 +/- 39 cts/s above the background in the combined data of four quadrants, with a total of 3616 +/- 17 cts. The local mean background count rate was 519 +/- 1 cts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 8.46 +/- 0.05 s. It was also clearly detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector in the 100-500 keV energy range. The light curve showed a single peak of emission peaking at 2020-05-19 11:20:46.000 UT. The measured peak count rate is 2339 +/- 62 cts/s above the background in the combined Veto data of four quadrants, with a total of 8499 +/- 21 cts. The local mean background count rate was 1541 +/- 1 cts/s. We measure a T90 of 8.64 +/- 0.02 s from the cumulative Veto light curve.

The total counts from this burst is 4010 counts. URL_LC: http://twiki.ihep.ac.cn/twiki/viewfile/HXMT/GRBList?filename=HEB200519472_lc.jpg;rev=2 All measurements above are made with the CsI detectors operating in the normal mode with the energy range of about 80-800 keV (deposited energy). Only gamma-rays with energy greater than about 200 keV can penetrate the spacecraft and leave signals in the CsI detectors installed inside of the telescope. Insight-HXMT is the first Chinese space X-ray telescope, which was funded jointly by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 27771 SUBJECT: GRB 200519A: Swift-BAT refined analysis DATE: 20/05/21 03:38:57 GMT FROM: Amy Lien at GSFC M. Stamatikos (OSU), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), J. R. Cummings (CPI), H. A. Krimm (NSF), S. Laha (GSFC/UMBC), A. Y. Lien (GSFC/UMBC), C. B. Markwardt (GSFC), D. M. Palmer (LANL), T. Sakamoto (AGU), B. Sbarufatti (PSU), T. N. Ukwatta (LANL) (i.e. the Swift-BAT team): Using the data set from T-61 to T+242 sec from the recent telemetry downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 200519A (trigger #973140) (Sbarufatti et al., GCN Circ. 27756). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 255.319, -30.393 deg which is RA(J2000) = 17h 01m 16.6s Dec(J2000) = -30d 23' 35.6" with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 99%. The mask-weighted light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts at ~T0 and ends at ~T+100 s. The three main peaks occur at ~T+1 s, ~T+24 s, and ~T+75 s, respectively. T90 (15-350 keV) is 71.88 +- 1.28 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-0.45 to T+103.00 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.42 +- 0.03. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 1.2 +- 0.02 x 10^-05 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+23.53 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 20.6 +- 0.5 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. The results of the batgrbproduct analysis are available at http://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/notices_s/973140/BA/

C. Anupama, D. K. Sahu and Pramod Kumar (IIA, Bengaluru) We observed the optical afterglow of GRB 200519A (Sbarufatti et al., GCN 27756) with the 2-m Himalayan Chandra Telescope (HCT) located at the Indian Astronomical Observatory, Hanle, India. The observations started on 2020-05-19 (20:10:35 UT) under good sky conditions and three consecutive frames (120, 240, and 240 sec) in Bessell R-band were obtained. The OT candidate (Kong et al., GCN 27757, Strausbaugh et al., GCN 27759, Hu et al., GCN 27760, Kumar et al., GCN 27764, Kumar et al. GCN 27767, Siegel & Sbarufatti, GCN 27769) is clearly detected in each frame. The preliminary photometry is performed relative to the USNO-B1.0 catalogue. The initial magnitude of the OT is 19.70 +- 0.10 (uncorrected for the galactic extinction). We thank the observing staff at IAO and CREST for helping with the observations.
