Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 33571 SUBJECT: GRB 230405B: Swift detection of a burst DATE: 23/04/05 20:11:06 GMT FROM: David Palmer at LANL K. L. Page (U Leicester), C. Gronwall (PSU), J.D. Gropp (PSU), J. A. Kennea (PSU), M. J. Moss (GWU), D. M. Palmer (LANL), T. M. Parsotan (GSFC/UMBC/CRESSTII) and M. H. Siegel (PSU) report on behalf of the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Team: At 19:58:03 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located GRB 230405B (trigger=1163119). Swift slewed immediately to the burst. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA, Dec 271.467, -47.070 which is RA(J2000) = 18h 05m 52s Dec(J2000) = -47d 04' 12" with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve showed a single-peaked structure with a duration of about 10 sec. The peak count rate was ~16000 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~2 sec after the trigger. The XRT began observing the field at 19:59:09.2 UT, 65.7 seconds after the BAT trigger. Using promptly downlinked data we find a bright, uncatalogued X-ray source located at RA, Dec 271.44108, -47.06898 which is equivalent to: RA(J2000) = 18h 05m 45.86s Dec(J2000) = -47d 04' 08.3" with an uncertainty of 3.5 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This location is 63 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 https://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 2.5 s image was 9.19e-10 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.2-10 keV). UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 150 seconds with the White filter starting 74 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. No correction has been made for the expected extinction corresponding to E(B-V) of 0.166. Burst Advocate for this burst is K. L. Page (kimlpage1978 AT gmail.com). 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/)

Vadawale (PRL) report on behalf of the AstroSat CZTI collaboration: Analysis of AstroSat CZTI data with the CIFT framework (Sharma et al., 2021, JApA, 42, 73) showed the detection of a long GRB 230405B which was also detected by Fermi (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 33570), and Swift (Page et al., GCN 33571). The source was clearly detected in the 20-200 keV energy range. The light curve peaks at 2023-04-05 19:58:05.65 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 894 (+200, -92) counts/s above the background in the combined data of three quadrants (out of four), with a total of 1098 (+189, -189) counts. The local mean background count rate was 336 (+8, -10) counts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 4.3 (+1.0, -1.7) s. The source was also clearly detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector in the 100-500 keV energy range. The light curve peaks at 2023-04-05 19:58:05.12 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 1564 (+88, -98) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all quadrants, with a total of 3078 (+369, -404) counts. The local mean background count rate was 1466 (+5, -6) counts/s. We measure a T90 of 4.1 (+5.1, -1.5) s from the cumulative Veto light curve. CZTI is built by a TIFR-led consortium of institutes across India, including VSSC, URSC, IUCAA, SAC, and PRL. The Indian Space Research Organisation funded, managed, and facilitated the project.

Vreeswijk (Radboud), D. Pieterse (Radboud) and D.B. Malesani (Radboud and DAWN/NBI) report on behalf of the MeerLICHT consortium: Following the detection of GRB 230405B by Swift/BAT along with its X-ray counterpart (Page et al., GCN 33571), the 0.6 m wide-field MeerLICHT optical telescope located at Sutherland, South Africa, obtained a repeated series of 60-s exposures in the q,u,g,r,i,z bands following the sequence quqgqrqiqz. Observations began 6.38 hours after the Swift trigger at 2023 April 6 02:20:05 UT and continued for a further 1.82 hours. Our individual 60-s exposures show no new optical source consistent with the enhanced XRT position (Beardmore et al., GCN 33574) when compared to archival DECam images of this field. We therefore co-added the images in each filter in order to obtain deeper limits. We report the following 3-sigma AB magnitude limits at the XRT position at ~7.2 hours post-trigger: u > 20.5 g > 21.3 q > 22.6 r > 21.2 i > 21.1 z > 20.1 MeerLICHT is built and run by a consortium consisting of Radboud University, University of Cape Town, the South African Astronomical Observatory, the University of Oxford, the University of Manchester and the University of Amsterdam.

Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "At 19:58:03 UT on 05 April 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230405B (trigger 702417488/230405832). which was also detected by the Swift/BAT and Swift/XRT (K. L. Page et al. 2023, GCN 33571). The Fermi GBM on-ground location is consistent with the Swift XRT position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 105 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of a single pulse with a duration (T90) of about 4.3 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0+0.0 to T0+5.1 s is best fit by a Band function with Epeak = 225 +/- 11 keV, alpha = -0.53 +/- 0.05, and beta = -2.4 +/- 0.1. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (1.2 +/- 0.2)E-05 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+1.5 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 27.5 +/- 0.5 ph/s/cm^2. The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog: https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/W3Browse/fermi/fermigbrst.html For Fermi GBM data and info, please visit the official Fermi GBM Support Page: https://fermi.gsfc.nasa.gov/ssc/data/access/gbm/"

Sbarrato (INAF-OAB), P. D'Avanzo (INAF-OAB), M.G. Bernardini (INAF-OAB), A. Tohuvavohu (U. Toronto), D.N. Burrows (PSU), J. D. Gropp (PSU), J.P. Osborne (U. Leicester) and K.L. Page report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team: We have analysed 6.5 ks of XRT data for GRB 230405B (Page et al. GCN Circ. 33571), from 54 s to 75.0 ks after the BAT trigger. The data comprise 246 s in Windowed Timing (WT) mode (the first 10 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 Beardmore et al. (GCN Circ. 33572). The light curve can be modelled with an initial power-law decay with an index of alpha=0.88 (+/-0.04), followed by a break at T+937 s to an alpha of 1.14 (+0.16, -0.05). A spectrum formed from the WT mode data can be fitted with an absorbed power-law with a photon spectral index of 2.10 (+0.12, -0.11). The best-fitting absorption column is 4.0 (+0.6, -0.5) x 10^21 cm^-2, in excess of the Galactic value of 1.6 x 10^21 cm^-2 (Willingale et al. 2013). The PC mode spectrum has a photon index of 1.95 (+0.17, -0.16) and a best-fitting absorption column of 5.4 (+1.1, -1.0) x 10^21 cm^-2. The counts to observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux conversion factor deduced from this spectrum is 4.2 x 10^-11 (6.8 x 10^-11) erg cm^-2 count^-1. A summary of the PC-mode spectrum is thus: Total column: 5.4 (+1.1, -1.0) x 10^21 cm^-2 Galactic foreground: 1.6 x 10^21 cm^-2 Excess significance: 6.2 sigma Photon index: 1.95 (+0.17, -0.16) The results of the XRT-team automatic analysis are available at http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_products/01163119.

The burst light curve shows a single pulse, which starts at ~T0-6.1 s and has a total duration of ~10.7 s. The emission is seen up to ~2 MeV. The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB230405_T71884/ As observed by Konus-Wind, the burst had a fluence of 2.24(-0.23,+0.27)x10^-5 erg/cm2, and a 64-ms peak flux, measured from T0+1.088 s, of 9.76(-1.97,+2.26)x10^-6 erg/cm2/s (both in the 20 keV - 10 MeV energy range). The time-averaged spectrum of the burst (measured from T0 to T0+8.448 s) is best fit in the 20 keV - 10 MeV range by the GRB (Band) model with the following parameters: the low-energy photon index alpha = -0.37(-0.26,+0.30), the high energy photon index beta = -2.75(-0.64,+0.31), the peak energy Ep = 184(-20,+23) keV (chi2 = 101/91 dof). All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. All the quoted values are preliminary.

The long duration GRB 230405B (Fermi/GBM detection: GCN 33570; Swift/BAT detection: GCN 33571; AstroSat detection: GCN 33575; AGILE detection: GCN 33585; Konus/Wind detection: GCN 33586; INTEGRAL/SPI-ACS detection at 2023-04-05 19:58:04) was detected by the GRB detector on board of the VZLUSAT-2 3U CubeSat (https://www.vzlusat2.cz/en/). The data acquisition was performed by the GRB detector unit no. 1 and the detection was confirmed at the peak time 2023-04-05 19:58:04 UTC. The T90 duration was measured to be 3 s with the light curve resolution of 1 s. The significance during T90 reaches 25 sigma. The light curve obtained by VZLUSAT-2 is available here: https://vzlusat2.konkoly.hu/static/share/GRB230405B_GCN_VZLUSAT2.pdf All VZLUSAT-2 detections are listed at: https://monoceros.physics.muni.cz/hea/VZLUSAT-2/ The GRB detectors on VZLUSAT-2 are a demonstration payload for a future CubeSat constellation (Werner et al. Proc. SPIE 2018). Two GRB modules of VZLUSAT-2 are placed in a perpendicular manner and each consists of a 75 x 75 x 5 mm3 CsI scintillator read out by a SiPM array, covering the energy range from ~30 keV to ~1000 keV. VZLUSAT-2 was launched on 2022 January 13 from Cape Canaveral.
