Ukwatta (GSFC/GWU) report on behalf of the Swift Team: At 16:57:52 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located GRB 090410 (trigger=348929). Swift could not slew to the GRB due to a Sun constraint. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA, Dec 334.980, +15.471 which is RA(J2000) = 22h 19m 55s Dec(J2000) = +15d 28' 16" with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve showed a complex peak from T-10 to T+40, followed by another broad peak from T+80 to T+140. The peak count rate was ~6000 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~6 sec after the trigger. Swift cannot slew to the BAT position. The burst is sun-constrained until Tuesday, 2009 April 14. There will thus be no XRT or UVOT data for this trigger. Burst Advocate for this burst is D. Grupe (grupe AT astro.psu.edu). 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/too.html.) _______________________________________________ Aavso-hen mailing list Aavso-hen@aavso.org To change options or unsubscribe, goto http://www.aavso.org/mailman/listinfo/aavso-hen The Santa Barbara Instrument Group (www.sbig.com): Proud Sponsor of the American Assocation of Variable Star Observers. ===== END MESSAGE ===== ===== BEGIN MESSAGE ===== From aavso-hen-bounces@aavso.org Fri Apr 10 13:52:58 2009 Return-Path: X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.2.5 (2008-06-10) on mira.aavso.org X-Spam-Level: * X-Spam-Status: No, score=1.8 required=3.0 tests=SUBJ_ALL_CAPS autolearn=disabled version=3.2.5 Received: from mira.aavso.org (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by mira.aavso.org (8.14.3/8.14.3) with ESMTP id n3AHqt2v000436; Fri, 10 Apr 2009 13:52:57 -0400 Received: from yx-out-1718.google.com (yx-out-1718.google.com [74.125.44.158]) by mira.aavso.org (8.14.3/8.14.3) with ESMTP id n3AHqr7F000433 for ; Fri, 10 Apr 2009 13:52:53 -0400 Received: by yx-out-1718.google.com with SMTP id 6so853622yxn.6 for ; Fri, 10 Apr 2009 10:52:53 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:date:message-id:subject :from:to:content-type; bh=xK41aVAS7/wl+m7ZH2QzoxZT98rIJKhsAzHWzye/inw=; b=tuojTxkQqb1NhvZNjyQQkYKEPWqB/Or4Jac8QK33RzolaR/SxtW9wK3DqUoeGYAU/l 77G6pD+cNIlpflaNMaiEU3rdBp2XVopE6i2ttQoX6PA4je8ri494Oh68KQuew4/DF6Ak xmv2VgFi3bN7FrZ3Zsvf763cOq3BkFvi/Olfk= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type; b=xGagccsquiIhyHcP+V8ees8sqqwn32GXLevEJBVhiNbuEMjNI/ETeoDRQWIMPTnetg cBj15cfxsAMBx0pF/q8fMaERkVdiakbOLVKKcj4/mqj09ZvXr1Z1rIHcr8E++6IrHYcq Uc3UZC7qrrd3lX586NMiPudnb/RKDlHqmVdH4= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.150.192.4 with SMTP id p4mr7140021ybf.44.1239385973074; Fri, 10 Apr 2009 10:52:53 -0700 (PDT) Date: Fri, 10 Apr 2009 13:52:53 -0400 Message-ID: <6e3196160904101052n26cbfc6du3d857702f35b8ad6@mail.gmail.com> From: "M.

Swift XRT and UVOT will not be able to observe for several days, so ground-based observations may find this first. The burst occurred about an hour ago (at ~16:58 UT) at the following coordinates: RA: 22 19 55 Dec: +15 28 16 It's three hours west of the Sun, so it's a morning object. Good luck, & clear skies, Matt ps, note that the "Latest Alerts" page on the AAVSO HEN section of the website is now being updated with Fermi (and eventually SuperAGILE) events, except for cases where the localization of Fermi GBM is too coarse to rule out a known source.

Ukwatta (GWU) (i.e. the Swift-BAT team): Using the data sets from T-240 to T+963 sec from recent telemetry downlinks, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 090410 (trigger #348929) (Grupe, et al., GCN Circ. 9122). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 334.956, 15.419 deg, which is RA(J2000) = 22h 19m 49.4s Dec(J2000) = +15d 25' 08.6" with an uncertainty of 1.8 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 100%. The mask-weighted light curve shows two main peaks with some precursor activity. The precursor activity starts at ~T-55 sec. And because the target location only came into the BAT FOV at T-110 sec, there may have been even earlier activity. The first main peak started at ~T-10 sec, peaked at ~T+7 sec, and ended around T+45 sec. The second main peak started at ~T+80 sec, peaked at ~T+120 sec, and returned to baseline T+170 sec. The burst location left the BAT FOV at ~T+390 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is 165 +- 8 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-49.2 to T+139.4 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.19 +- 0.05. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 5.6 +- 0.2 x 10^-6 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+8.90 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 1.9 +- 0.1 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.

Afonso, T. Kruehler, A. Rau and J. Greiner (MPE Garching), report on behalf of the GROND team: GROND (Greiner et al. 2008, PASP 120, 405), the 7-channel imager mounted at the 2.2m ESO/MPI telescope at La Silla Observatory (Chile) started follow-up observations of GRB 090410 (Grupe et al. 2009, GCN #9122) on April 11, at 10:17 UTC (17.3 h after the burst). In addition, a second epoch of imaging was obtained, which started on April 12, 10:10 UTC. Observations were performed at high airmass (~2.5) and limited to a total of 4 min exposures in each J, H and K in both epochs because of Sun constraints. We do not detect any new object with respect to 2MASS inside the enhanced BAT error circle (Barthelmy et al. 2009, GCN #9123), and image subtraction between the two epochs does not reveal any obvious variable source. Upper limits from the first observation are as follows (all in the AB system): J > 19.1 mag H > 19.0 mag K > 18.1 mag The upper limits have been obtained using 2MASS field stars as reference. The given magnitudes are not corrected for the expected Galactic foreground extinction of E(B-V) of 0.05 mag. _______________________________________________ Aavso-hen mailing list Aavso-hen@aavso.org To change options or unsubscribe, goto http://www.aavso.org/mailman/listinfo/aavso-hen The Santa Barbara Instrument Group (www.sbig.com): Proud Sponsor of the American Assocation of Variable Star Observers. ===== END MESSAGE ===== ===== BEGIN MESSAGE ===== From aavso-hen-bounces@aavso.org Tue Apr 14 17:02:45 2009 Return-Path: X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.2.5 (2008-06-10) on mira.aavso.org X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-1.4 required=2.5 tests=ALL_TRUSTED autolearn=disabled version=3.2.5 Received: from mira.aavso.org (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by mira.aavso.org (8.14.3/8.14.3) with ESMTP id n3EL2fJB024702; Tue, 14 Apr 2009 17:02:42 -0400 Received: from mira.aavso.org (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by mira.aavso.org (8.14.3/8.14.3) with ESMTP id n3EL2eHW024698 for ; Tue, 14 Apr 2009 17:02:40 -0400 Received: (from grb@localhost) by mira.aavso.org (8.14.3/8.14.3/Submit) id n3EL2d59024696; Tue, 14 Apr 2009 17:02:39 -0400 Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2009 17:02:39 -0400 Message-Id: <200904142102.n3EL2d59024696@mira.aavso.org> To: aavso-hen@aavso.org From: grb@aavso.org Subject: [AAVSO-HEN] GCN Report 205.1: Final results on Swift GRB 090410 X-BeenThere: aavso-hen@aavso.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.11 Precedence: list List-Id: AAVSO High Energy Network List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: aavso-hen-bounces@aavso.org Errors-To: aavso-hen-bounces@aavso.org The following is a GCN Circular circulated via the AAVSO network.

Iwakiri, M. Tashiro, Y. Terada, A. Endo, K. Onda, T. Sugasahara (Saitama U.), Y. Urata (NCU), M. Ohno, M. Suzuki, M. Kokubun, T. Takahashi (ISAS/JAXA), T. Enoto, K. Nakazawa, K.

Ohmori, K. Kono, H. Hayashi (Univ. of Miyazaki), S. Hong (Nihon U.), N. Vasquez (Tokyo Tech.), on behalf of the Suzaku WAM team, report: The long GRB 090410 (Swift/BATtrigger #348929 ; Grupe et al., GCN 9122) triggered the Suzaku Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers an energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV at 16:57:53.392 UT (=T0). The observed light curve shows main peaks starting at T0-5s, ending at T0+25s, followed by a long weak tail seen up to T0+150s. And the precursor activity reported by Swift/BAT (Barthelmy et al., GCN 9123) is also seen at T0-55s. The total T90 duration including this precursor is about 166 seconds. The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was 1.2 +/- 0.3 x 10^-5 erg/cm^2. The 1-s scaled peak flux measured from T0+5s was 3.0 (-0.3, +0.2) photons/cm^2/s in the same energy range. Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0-60s to T0+150s is well fitted by a single power-law with a photon index of 2.3 (-0.3, +0.3) (chi^2/d.o.f = 4.9/8), and the spectrum of the main bright peak from T0-5s to T0+25s is well fitted by a power-law with exponential cutoff model: dN/dE ~ E^{-alpha} * exp(-(2-alpha)*E/Epeak) with alpha 1.3 +/-0.5, and Epeak 304 (-79, +60) keV (chi^2/d.o.f. = 7.9/7). All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level, in which the systematic uncertainties are not included.
