SUBJECT: GRB 211120B: Swift/BAT-GUANO detection outside the coded FOV
DATE: 21/11/21 14:44:02 GMT
FROM: Aaron Tohuvavohu at U Toronto
James DeLaunay (UAlabama), Gayathri Raman (PSU), Aaron Tohuvavohu (U
Toronto), Jamie A. Kennea (PSU), report:
Swift/BAT did not successfully trigger on GRB 211120B (T0: 2021-11-20
13:09:46.8 UT, Fermi Trigger: 659106591).
The Fermi notice, distributed in near real-time, triggered the Swift
Mission Operations Center operated Gamma-ray Urgent Archiver for Novel
Opportunities (GUANO; Tohuvavohu et al. 2020, ApJ, 900, 1).
Upon trigger by this notice, GUANO sent a command to the Swift Burst
Alert Telescope (BAT) to save 200 seconds of BAT event-mode data from
[-50,+150] seconds around the time of the burst. All the requested
event mode data was delivered to the ground.
The BAT likelihood search, NITRATES (DeLaunay + Tohuvavohu,
arXiv:2111.01769), detects the burst with a sqrt(TS) of 23.1 in a
8.192 s analysis time bin.
The estimated T90 in the detector is 24.5 s (15-350 keV).
NITRATES prefers an origin for this burst coming from outside the
coded FOV, with DeltaLLHOut of -6.
See Section 9.1 and Figure 20 in the NITRATES paper for brief
descriptions and interpretation of sqrt(TS), DeltaLLHPeak, and
DeltaLLHOut.
An out of FOV origin is consistent with the Fermi/GBM localization.
GUANO is a fully autonomous, extremely low latency, spacecraft
commanding pipeline designed for targeted recovery of BAT event mode
data around the times of compelling astrophysical events to enable
more sensitive GRB searches.

SUBJECT: GRB 211120548: Fermi GBM observation
DATE: 21/11/26 15:39:53 GMT
FROM: Rachel Dunwoody at UCD
R. Dunwoody (UCD), J.Mangan (UCD) and C.Meegan (UAH)
report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team:
"At 13:09:46.84 UT on 20 November 2021, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
(GBM)
triggered and located GRB 211120B (trigger 659106591 / 211120548).
which was also detected by the Swift/BAT-GUANO (DeLaunay et al. 2021, GCN
31101)
The GBM on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger
data, is RA = 47.9, DEC = 47.1 (J2000 degrees,
equivalent to 03 h 11 m, 47 d 6 '), with a statistical uncertainty
of 1.9 degrees (radius, 1-sigma containment, statistical only;
there is additionally a systematic error which we have characterized as a
core-plus-tail model,
with 90% of GRBs having a 3.7 deg error and a small tail suffering
a larger than 10 deg systematic error. [Connaughton et al. 2015, ApJS, 216,
32] )
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight at the GBM trigger time is 62
degrees.
The GBM light curve consists of a single peak
with a duration (T90) of about 36.1 s (50-300 keV).
The time-averaged spectrum from T0-6.400 s to T0+33.537 s is
best fit by a power law function with an exponential
high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -0.99 +/- 0.04 and
the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 298.2 +/- 26.3 keV
The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is
(1.184 +/- 0.60)E-05 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured
starting from T0+1.28 s in the 10-1000 keV band
is 6.5 +/- 0.2 ph/s/cm^2.
A Band function fits the spectrum equally well
with Epeak= 180.1 +/- 24.3 keV, alpha = -0.79 +/- 0.08 and beta = -1.87 +/-
0.08.
The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary;
final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog:
