Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 33751 SUBJECT: GRB 230510A: Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization DATE: 23/05/10 12:14:55 GMT FROM: Fermi GBM Team at MSFC/Fermi-GBM The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB At 12:04:06 UT on 10 May 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230510A (trigger 705413051.934178 / 230510503). The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 322.3, Dec = 31.0 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 21h 29m, 31d 00'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.6 degrees. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 14.0 degrees.

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 33752 SUBJECT: GRB 230510A: Swift detection of a burst DATE: 23/05/10 12:44:51 GMT FROM: K.L. Page at U Leicester R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris (U Leicester), P. A. Evans (U Leicester), J.D. Gropp (PSU), J. A. Kennea (PSU), F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC), K. L. Page (U Leicester), P. Romano (INAF-OAB), T. Sakamoto (AGU), B. Sbarufatti (INAF-OAB) and M. A. Williams (PSU) report on behalf of the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Team: At 12:06:28 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located GRB 230510A (trigger=1167973). Swift slewed immediately to the burst. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA, Dec 318.156, +34.443 which is RA(J2000) = 21h 12m 37s Dec(J2000) = +34d 26' 33" with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve showed a complex structure with a duration of about 60 sec. The peak count rate was ~5100 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~13 sec after the trigger. The XRT began observing the field at 12:07:31.9 UT, 63.4 seconds after the BAT trigger. XRT found a bright, uncatalogued X-ray source located at RA, Dec 318.1314, 34.4424 which is equivalent to: RA(J2000) = 21h 12m 31.54s Dec(J2000) = +34d 26' 32.6" with an uncertainty of 6.5 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This location is 73 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 0.1 s image was 1.19e-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. 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 0.144. This trigger was initially marked as matching a source in the BAT ground catalogue: IGR J21117+3427, a known gamma-ray source. However, the XRT localisation is more than 9 arcmin from the known position of IGR J21117+3427, outside its error region of 3.5 arcmin (ATel 873). This, together with the BAT transient monitor light-curve showing little sign of variation suggests that this is in fact a new GRB. Burst Advocate for this burst is R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris (raje1 AT leicester.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/)

Osborne and A.P. Beardmore (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team. Using 1466 s of XRT Photon Counting mode data and 4 UVOT images for GRB 230510A, 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 = 318.13672, +34.44306 which is equivalent to: RA (J2000): 21h 12m 32.81s Dec (J2000): +34d 26' 35.0" with an uncertainty of 2.2 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.

Osborne (U. Leicester), A. D'Ai (INAF-IASFPA), A. Melandri (INAF-OAR), T. Sbarrato (INAF-OAB), S. Dichiara (PSU), J.A. Kennea (PSU), A. Tohuvavohu (U. Toronto), K.L. Page (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team: We have analysed 6.3 ks of XRT data for GRB 230510A, from 52 s to 23.0 ks after the BAT trigger. The data comprise 250 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 late-time light curve (from T0+4.2 ks) can be modelled with a power-law decay with a decay index of alpha=0.92 (+/-0.09). A spectrum formed from the WT mode data can be fitted with an absorbed power-law with a photon spectral index of 2.19 (+/-0.05). The best-fitting absorption column is 2.53 (+0.17, -0.16) x 10^21 cm^-2, in excess of the Galactic value of 1.9 x 10^21 cm^-2 (Willingale et al. 2013). The PC mode spectrum has a photon index of 1.99 (+0.13, -0.08) and a best-fitting absorption column of 1.938 (+0.454, -0.025) x 10^21 cm^-2. The counts to observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux conversion factor deduced from this spectrum is 3.5 x 10^-11 (4.8 x 10^-11) erg cm^-2 count^-1. A summary of the PC-mode spectrum is thus: Total column: 1.938 (+0.454, -0.025) x 10^21 cm^-2 Galactic foreground: 1.9 x 10^21 cm^-2 Excess significance: <1.6 sigma Photon index: 1.99 (+0.13, -0.08) If the light curve continues to decay with a power-law decay index of 0.92, the count rate at T+24 hours will be 0.035 count s^-1, corresponding to an observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux of 1.2 x 10^-12 (1.7 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/01167973. This circular is an official product of the Swift-XRT team.

Liu, D. Xu (NAOC), Z.P. Zhu (NAOC, HUST), X. Gao (Urumqi No.1 Senior High School), J.Z. Liu (XAO) report: We observed the field of GRB 230510A detected by Swift (Eyles-Ferris et al., GCN 33752) and Fermi (Fermi GBM team, GCN 33751) using the NEXT-0.6m telescope located at Nanshan, Xinjiang, China. Observations started at 18:47:49.1 UT on 2023-05-10, i.e., 6.69 hr after the Swift/BAT trigger, and 12x200 s exposures have been obtained in the Sloan r-filter. We detected an uncatalogued optical transient (OT) within the enhanced Swift/XRT error circle (Evans et al., GCN 33756) at coordinates R.A. (J2000) = 21:12:32.87 Dec.(J2000) = +34:26:35:59 with an uncertainty of ~ 0.5 arcsec, and it has m(r) = 20.5 +/- 0.1 mag in the co-added image at 7.27 hr post-burst, calibrated with the nearby PanSTAR field. PanSTAR covers this position and is much deeper, but the OT is not present. We thus conclude that the OT is the optical afterglow of the burst.

The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors. The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts at T-139.5 sec, peaks at T+19.6 sec, and ends at T+43.6 sec. The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 106.2 +/- 71.3 sec and 13.1 +/- 0.7 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively. The ground-processed light curve is available at http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1367755544/ The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at Waseda University.

Observations started at 18:48:27 UT on 2023-05-10, i.e., 6.7 hr after the Swift/BAT trigger, 40 x 90 s images were obtained in the Sloan r filter. No optical source is detected in our stacked image at the enhanced XRT position (Evans et al., GCN 33756), down to a 3-sigma limiting magnitude r > 19.7 (AB) at 7.27 hr post-burst, calibrated with nearby PanSTARRS stars. The upper limit is consistent with our deeper detection at the Nanshan/NEXT (Jiang et al., GCN 33761).

Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 12:04:06.93 UT on 10 April 2023, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230510A (trigger 705413051 / 230510503), which was also detected by the Swift/BAT and Swift/XRT (Eyles-Ferris et al. 2023, GCN 33752; Evans et al. 2023, GCN 33756). The GBM on-ground location is consistent with the Swift position (GCN 33751). The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight at the GBM trigger time is 14 degrees. The GBM light curve shows a weaker peak followed about 100 s later by a brighter peak, with a duration (T90) of about 177 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-4.1 s to T0+11.3 s is best fit by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -0.9 +/- 0.1 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 87 +/- 7 keV. A Band function fits the spectrum equally well with Epeak = 87 +/- 9 keV, alpha = -0.9 +/- 0.1 and beta = -3.8 +/- 3.2. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (2.0 +/- 0.1)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+158 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 12.4 +/- 0.4 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/"

We performed a series of 3x300s exposures in each band. We do not detect a source within the Swift-XRT enhanced error region (Evans et al., GCN 33756) in either band, consistent with fading from the optical afterglow candidate (Jiang et al., GCN 33761). The following upper limits are calculated using the PanSTARRS catalog as reference: r > 21.5 i > 19.8 These magnitudes are not corrected for galactic extinction.

Observations were made from 2023 11 May 01:24:26 UT to 2023 11 May 03:00:47 UT (mid time ~13.2h after trigger). In the combined frames, we detect a faint source consistent with the X-ray afterglow position reported by Evans et al. (GCN 33756) and with the optical afterglow position reported by Jiang et al. (GCN 33761). The source is detected by both instruments at the same position. Combining the MISTRAL and T120 images, we measured a magnitude of r = 21.8 +/- 0.2, in agreement with the value determined individually for each instrument. The faintest PanStarr DR1 object detected at 3 sigma in the combined image is at r = 22. The photometric calibration was performed using nearby stars from the PS1 catalog and the magnitude is not corrected for Galactic extinction. We acknowledge the excellent support from Observatoire de Haute-Provence, in particular Jean Balcaen for the MISTRAL observations, Yoann Degot-Longhi, Stephane Favard, Luc Favre, and Christelle Eyraud for the T120 observations.

The long-duration GRB 230510A (Fermi/GBM detection: GCN 33751; Swift/BAT detection: GCN 33752; CALET/CGBM detection: GCN 33762; Wind/Konus detection at 2023-05-10 12:06:42.814 UT; INTEGRAL/SPI-ACS detection at 2023-05-10 12:06:43 UT) was observed by the GRBAlpha 1U CubeSat (Pal et al. 2023; arXiv:2302.10048). The detection was confirmed at the peak time 2023-05-10 12:06:31 UTC. The T90 duration measured by GRBAlpha is 24 s and the overall significance during T90 reaches 6.6 sigma in the 120-400 keV band. The light curve obtained by GRBAlpha is available here: https://grbalpha.konkoly.hu/static/share/GRB230510A_GCN.pdf All GRBAlpha detections are listed at: https://monoceros.physics.muni.cz/hea/GRBAlpha/ GRBAlpha, launched on 2021 March 22, is a demonstration mission for a future CubeSat constellation (Werner et al. Proc. SPIE 2018). The detector of GRBAlpha consists of a 75 x 75 x 5 mm3 CsI scintillator read out by a SiPM array, covering the energy range from ~50 keV to ~1000 keV. To increase the duty cycle and the downlink rate, the upgrade of the on-board data acquisition software stack is in progress. The ground segment is also supported by the radio amateur community and it takes advantage of the SatNOGS network for increased data downlink volume.

Barthelmy (GSFC), R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris (U Leicester), H. A. Krimm (NSF), A. Y. Lien (U Tampa), C. B. Markwardt (GSFC), D. M. Palmer (LANL), T. Parsotan (GSFC/UMBC), T. Sakamoto (AGU), M. Stamatikos (OSU) (i.e. the Swift-BAT team): Using the data set from T-240 to T+349 sec from the recent telemetry downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 230510A (trigger #1167973) (Eyles-Ferris, et al., GCN Circ. 33752). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 318.138, 34.430 deg which is RA(J2000) = 21h 12m 33.2s Dec(J2000) = +34d 25' 49.8" with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 100%. The mask-weighted light curve shows a precursor starting at T-150 s with a duration of ~20 s. The bright main episode starts at T-10 s, peaks at T+15 s, and ends at T+60 s. T90 (15-350 keV) is 178.4 +- 6.9 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-145.6 to T+56.8 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.60 +- 0.09. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 1.0 +- 0.1 x 10^-5 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+13.39 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 5.9 +- 0.3 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/1167973/BA/
