Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 34159 SUBJECT: GRB 230707A: Swift/BAT-GUANO arcminute localization of a burst DATE: 23/07/07 11:21:40 GMT FROM: Aaron Tohuvavohu at University of Toronto Aaron Tohuvavohu (U Toronto), James DeLaunay (U Alabama), Gayathri Raman (PSU), Jamie A. Kennea (PSU), Tyler Parsotan (NASA GSFC) report: Swift/BAT did not localize GRB 230707A onboard (T0: 2023-07-07T03:22:51 UTC, Fermi/GBM GCN 34156). 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 burst is ~15 s in duration as seen by BAT. In ground analysis of the available data, we find the position of the burst with SNR 10.0 in the image domain. The BAT position is RA, Dec = 171.4759 -21.5125, which is: RA (J2000) 11h 25m 54.22s Dec (J2000) -21d 30' 45.0" with an estimated uncertainty of 2 arcminutes. XRT and UVOT follow-up has been requested. Results of follow-up observations will be reported in future circulars. 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. A live reporting of Swift/BAT event data recovered by GUANO can be found at: https://www.swift.psu.edu/guano/

Leicester) reports on behalf of the Swift team: Swift has initiated a ToO observation of the Swift/BAT-GUANO GRB 230707A. Automated analysis of the XRT data will be presented online at https://www.swift.ac.uk/ToO_GRBs/00021587 Any uncatalogued X-ray sources detected in this analysis will be reported on this website and via GCN COUNTERPART notices. These are not necessarily related to the Swift/BAT-GUANO event. Any X-ray source considered to be a probable afterglow candidate will be reported via a GCN Circular after manual consideration. Details of the XRT automated analysis methods are detailed in Evans et al. (2007, A&A, 469, 379; 2009, MNRAS, 397, 1177 and 2014, ApJS, 210, 8).

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 34162 SUBJECT: GRB 230707A: Fermi GBM Detection DATE: 23/07/07 17:52:03 GMT FROM: Peter Veres at University of Alabama in Huntsville P. Veres and C. Meegan (both UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "At 03:22:51.96 UT on 07 July 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230707A (trigger 710392976/230707141), which was also detected by the Swift/BAT-GUANO (Tohuvavohu et al. 2023, GCN 34159). The Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization (GCN 34156) is consistent with the Swift position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 63 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of multiple pulses with a duration (T90) of about 29 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-2.8 to T0+30.0 s is best fit by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -0.77 +/- 0.08 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 121 +/- 7 keV. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (6.9 +/- 0.2)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+1.5 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 6.5 +/- 0.3 ph/s/cm^2. A Band function fits the spectrum equally well with Epeak= 110 +/- 10 keV, alpha = -0.7 +/- 0.1 and beta = -2.5 +/- 0.2. 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/"

Beardmore (U. Leicester), J.P. Osborne (U. Leicester), M. Perri (SSDC & INAF-OAR), V. D'Elia (SSDC & INAF-OAR), B. Sbarufatti (INAF-OAB), D.N. Burrows (PSU), J. D. Gropp (PSU) and P.A. Evans (U. Leicester) reports on behalf of the Swift-XRT team: Swift-XRT has performed follow-up observations of the Swift/BAT-GUANO-detected burst GRB 230707A, collecting 4.7 ks of Photon Counting (PC) mode data between T0+32.7 ks and T0+51.0 ks. No X-ray sources have been detected consistent with being within 197 arcsec of the Swift/BAT-GUANO position. The 3-sigma upper limit in the field ranges from ~0.002 to ~0.003 ct s^-1, corresponding to a 0.3-10 keV observed flux of 9.4e-14 to 1.3e-13 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (assuming a typical GRB spectrum). Three uncatalogued sources were detected too far from the GRB position to be likely afterglow candidates. The results of the XRT-team automatic analysis of the XRT observations, including a position-specific upper limit calculator, are available at https://www.swift.ac.uk/ToO_GRBs/00021587.

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 34205 SUBJECT: GRB 230707A: Swift/BAT-GUANO position correction DATE: 23/07/12 01:58:42 GMT FROM: Aaron Tohuvavohu at University of Toronto Aaron Tohuvavohu (U Toronto), Dmitry Svinkin (Ioffe Institute) report: The prior reporting of the arcminute localization of GRB 230707A (GCN 34159) is incorrect. The GRB signal detected and localized by BAT-GUANO is real, and correctly localized to arcminute precision in the instrument frame. However, an incorrect spacecraft attitude quaternion was used for conversion from instrument to celestial coordinates. The corrected BAT position for this burst is: RA, Dec = 173.1992 -16.4121, which is: RA (J2000) 11h 32m 47.81s Dec (J2000) -16d 24' 43.6" with an estimated uncertainty of 2 arcminutes. This position is 5.35 degrees from the position reported in GCN 34159. I apologize for the error, and gratefully acknowledge the critical support from IPN teammates in identifying this discrepancy. The source of the error has been identified and corrections will be implemented. Previous BAT localizations have not been affected by this error.
