Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 38354 SUBJECT: GRB 241127A: Swift detection of a burst with an optical counterpart DATE: 24/11/27 21:59:40 GMT FROM: K.L. Page at U Leicester C. Salvaggio (INAF-OAB), R. Brivio (INAF-OAB), S. Dichiara (PSU), M. Ferro (INAF-OAB), R. Gupta (NASA GSFC), A. Y. Lien (U Tampa), F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC), K. L. Page (U Leicester), A. Tohuvavohu (Caltech) and M. A. Williams (PSU) report on behalf of the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Team: At 21:43:16 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located GRB 241127A (trigger=1270788). Swift slewed immediately to the burst. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA, Dec 327.922, -56.685 which is RA(J2000) = 21h 51m 41s Dec(J2000) = -56d 41' 06" 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 ~2000 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~0 sec after the trigger. The XRT began observing the field at 21:44:22.8 UT, 66.6 seconds after the BAT trigger. Using promptly downlinked data we find a bright, uncatalogued X-ray source located at RA, Dec 327.88355, -56.66459 which is equivalent to: RA(J2000) = 21h 51m 32.05s Dec(J2000) = -56d 39' 52.5" with an uncertainty of 4.0 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This location is 105 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. A power-law fit to a spectrum formed from promptly downlinked event data gives a column density in excess of the Galactic value (2.68 x 10^20 cm^-2, Willingale et al. 2013), with an excess column of 6.1 (+6.36/-4.83) x 10^21 cm^-2 (90% confidence). The initial flux in the 2.5 s image was 2.12e-09 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.2-10 keV). UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 150 seconds with the White filter starting 484 seconds after the BAT trigger. There is a candidate afterglow in the rapidly available 2.7'x2.7' sub-image at RA(J2000) = 21:51:32.32 = 327.88467 DEC(J2000) = -56:39:55.1 = -56.66531 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 17.14 with a 1-sigma error of about 0.14. No correction has been made for the expected extinction corresponding to E(B-V) of 0.034. Burst Advocate for this burst is C. Salvaggio (chiara.salvaggio AT inaf.it). 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/)

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 38359 SUBJECT: GRB 241127A: LCOGT (40-cm) optical counterpart detection DATE: 24/11/28 04:18:13 GMT FROM: Ismael Perez-Fournon at Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias I. Ortega-Casas, B. Armas-Chinea, F. Dobrindt, P. Escudero-Coca, G. Fernández-Rodríguez, Á. García Lozano, A. Huertas Ferrer, C. Méndez-Lapido, M. Torreiro Martínez, G. Villa (all ULL), S.R. Berlanas (IAC and ULL), and I. Pérez-Fournon (IAC and ULL) We report on optical follow-up observations of GRB 241127A, detected by Swift BAT, XRT, and UVOT (Salvaglio et al., GCN circular 38354) and by MASTER (Buckley et al., GCN circular 38352 and Francile et al., GCN circular 38358). We observed the field of GRB 241127A with the two Las Cumbres Observatory Global telescope network (LCOGT) Planewave Delta Rho 350 telescopes, equipped with QHY600 CMOS detectors, located at the LCOGT node at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (Chile) in the SDSS r', i', and g' filters, with 600 sec exposures in each of the filters. We detect the optical counterpart at a position consistent with the Swift UVOT (Salvaglio et al., GCN circular 38354) and MASTER (Buckley et al., GCN circular 38352 and Francile et al., GCN circular 38358) detections. We measure the following magnitudes, calibrated using stars from the catalog of Gaia DR3 synthetic photometry generated from the Gaia BP/RP mean spectra (Gaia collaboration 2022) and without corrections for Milky Way extinction: r' = 19.42 +/- 0.08, on 2024-11-28 00:58:30 UT, 3.25 hours after the Swift trigger i' = 19.27 +/- 0.15, on 2024-11-28 01:04:49 UT, 3.36 hours after the Swift trigger g' = 19.70 +/- 0.07, on 2024-11-28 01:10:03 UT, 3.45 hours after the Swift trigger In the Legacy Surveys DR10 catalog there is a faint galaxy close to the position of the GRB optical counterpart at RA, Dec (J2000, deg) = 327.8851, -56.6653 and with magnitudes g = 25.08, r = 24.70, i = 24.38, and z = 23.57, that is the likely GRB host galaxy. These results are based on observations made with the Las Cumbres Observatory’s education network telescopes that were upgraded through generous support from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and are part of a course on Astrophysical Techniques of the Master in Astrophysics of the Universidad de La Laguna, Tenerife, Spain (LCOGT observing programme IAC2024B-010, ULL-ASTRO-MASTER).

Evans and M.R. Goad (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team. Using 2379 s of XRT Photon Counting mode data and 9 UVOT images for GRB 241127A, 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 = 327.88543, -56.66544 which is equivalent to: RA (J2000): 21h 51m 32.50s Dec (J2000): -56d 39' 55.6" with an uncertainty of 2.1 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.

Freeberg (KNC), on behalf of the GRANDMA and Kilonova-Catcher collaborations: We observed the field of GRB 241127A, detected by SWIFT (GCN 38354) and SVOM (GCN 38363) with the GRANDMA network and its citizen science project Kilonova-catcher (KNC). Our observations were performed with the TAROT-TCH, FRAM-Auger and the KNC-CHI-1, 60cm telescopes. We detect the afterglow already observed by Swift/XRT and UVOT (GCN 38354, 38362, 38364, 38365), MASTER (GCN 38353, 38358) and LCOGT (GCN 38359) and obtain the following magnitudes: | Tstart (UTC) | Telescope | Exposure | Filter | Magnitude | | 2024-11-28T00:33:05 | FRAM-Auger | 20x120s | R | 18.78 +- 0.20 (Vega)| | 2024-11-28T00:50:45 | TAROT-TCH | 4x180s | R | 19.14 +- 0.17 (Vega)| | 2024-11-28T01:16:26 | KNC-CHI-1 | 2x120s | r' | 19.4 +- 0.1 (AB) | | 2024-11-28T01:20:52 | KNC-CHI-1 | 2x120s | g' | 19.74 +- 0.09 (AB) | All the data have been reduced by a single data processing pipeline, STDPipe (Karpov et al., 2022). TCH and KNC images were calibrated using the SkyMapper DR4 catalogue, the FRAM-Auger image used Gaia DR3 Synphot. The data are not corrected from Galaxy extinction. Our magnitudes are consistent with those reported by LCOGT in GCN 38359. We use the SkyPortal application (skyportal.io) to monitor our observational campaign (Coughlin et al. 2023) A report of the observations of GRANDMA for this source can be seen at: https://skyportal-icare.ijclab.in2p3.fr/public/sources/GRB241127 GRANDMA is a worldwide telescope network (grandma.ijclab.in2p3.fr) devoted to the observation of transients in the context of multi-messenger astrophysics (Antier et al. 2020 MNRAS 497, 5518).

Guiffreda (UMD), A. S. Kutyrev (NASA/GSFC), S. B. Cenko (NASA/GSFC) Following the Swift BAT detection (GCN 38354), we observed the transient field in J and H filters with PRIME ~23 hours after Swift detection. At the position of the optical counterpart reported by Swift UVOT (GCN 38354), we detect an uncatalogued source in J-band. Using nearby VISTA Hemispherical Survey (VHS) for preliminary calibration we derive the following magnitude and limit, not corrected for Galactic extinction: | Filter | Mag(AB) | |--------|--------------| | J | 20.5 +/- 0.1 | | H | > 20.1 | PRIME is a 1.8m telescope with 1.56 square degree FOV (0.5 arcsec/pixel) located in Sutherland, South Africa at the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO) (Kutyrev et al. 2023, Yama et al. 2023, Durbak et al. 2024).

A. Krimm (NSF), S. Laha (GSFC/UMBC), A. Y. Lien (U Tampa), C. B. Markwardt (GSFC), M. J. Moss (GSFC), T. Parsotan (GSFC), D. Sadaula (GSFC/UMBC), C. Salvaggio (INAF-OAB), T. Sakamoto (AGU) (i.e. the Swift-BAT team): Using the data set from T-50 to T+242 sec from the recent telemetry downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 241127A (trigger #1270788) (Salvaggio et al., GCN Circ. 38354). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 327.911, -56.652 deg which is RA(J2000) = 21h 51m 38.5s Dec(J2000) = -56d 39' 08.1" with an uncertainty of 1.7 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 100%. The mask-weighted light curve shows some weak emission that starts at ~T-21 s, followed by the main pulse that starts at ~T-1 s, peaks at ~T+1 s, and ends at ~T+9 s. T90 (15-350 keV) is 26.02 +- 3.63 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-20.83 to T+9.13 sec is best fit by a power law with an exponential cutoff. This fit gives a photon index 1.10 +- 1.01, and Epeak of 19.0 +- 12.56 keV (chi squared 52.96 for 56 d.o.f.). For this model the total fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 6.5 +- 0.8 x 10^-07 erg/cm2 and the 1-sec peak flux measured from T+0.09 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 2.3 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec. A fit to a simple power law gives a photon index of 2.65 +- 0.21 (chi squared 60.15 for 57 d.o.f.). All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. The results of the batgrbproduct analysis are available at https://swift.gsfc.nasa.gov/results/batgrbcat/BAT_refined_circular/1270788
