TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 33547 SUBJECT: GRB 230328B: 3.6m DOT multiband optical observation DATE: 23/03/31 07:49:48 GMT FROM: Amit Kumar Ror at ARIES <mitturor77894(a)gmail.com> Amit K. Ror, Rahul Gupta, S. B. Pandey, A. Ghosh, A. Aryan, and K. Misra (ARIES) report: GRB 230328B was triggered by Swift-BAT at 14:54:48 UT and Fermi-GBM at 14:54:47.43 UT on 28-03-2023 (Gropp et al. 2023 GCN 33527, Dalessi et al. 2023 GCN 33531). The prompt emission was also detected by other … [View More]space-based facilities like AstroSat-CZTI (Waratkar et al. 2023, GCN 33532), GRBAlpha (Dafcikova et al. 2023, GCN 33543), and Konus-Wind (Svinkin et al. 2023, GCN 33544). We searched for extended GeV emission for a temporal window of 10 ks since the GBM trigger, based on available LAT data. However, we did not find the detection of any GeV photons, and an upper limit was obtained for an energy flux < 5.2 x 10^{-10} erg/cm2/s in the energy range 100 MeV - 100 GeV with TS < 20. We observed the field of GRB 230328B using the 3.6m Devasthal Optical Telescope located at the Devasthal observatory of the Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES), Nainital, India. We have taken multiple frames with an exposure time of 300 sec each in several optical passbands. We clearly detect the optical afterglow discovered by Swift-UVOT in each individual image. The estimated preliminary magnitude is as follows: Date Start_UT T_start-T0 (days) Filter Exp time (sec) magnitude ============================================================== 2023-03-28 21:51:54.44 ~0.29 R 300 sec 20.30 +/- 0.08 The magnitude quoted is not corrected for the galactic and host extinctions in the direction of the burst. Photometric calibration is performed using the standard stars from the USNO-B1 catalog. The detection of the optical afterglow is consistent with the observation of Gropp et al. 2023 (GCN 33527), Pankov et al. 2023 (GCN 33528), Belkin et al. 2023 (GCN 33530), Lu et al. 2023 (GCN 33534), Catapano et al. (33535), Suresh et al. (GCN 33536), Adami et al. (GCN 33537), Gompertz et al. (GCN 33538), Komesh et al. (GCN 33539), Lu et al. 2023 (GCN 33540) By combining our R-band magnitude with the observations of Pankov et al. 2023 (GCN 33528) and Belkin et al. 2023 (GCN 33530), we have determined the preliminary flux decay index of 0.55 +/-0.06. This circular may be cited. The 3.6m Devasthal Optical Telescope (DOT) is a recently commissioned facility in the Northern Himalayan region of India (long: 79 41 04E, lat: 29 21 40N, alt: 2540m) owned and operated by the Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES), Nainital ( https://www.aries.res.in).

The long-duration GRB 230328B (Fermi/GBM detection: GCN 33526; Swift/BAT detection: GCN 33527; AstroSat/CZTI detection: GCN 33532; GECAM-B detection: trigger no. 165) was observed by the GRBAlpha 1U CubeSat (Pal et al. 2023; arXiv:2302.10048). The detection was confirmed at the peak time 2023-03-28 14:54:49 UTC. The T90 duration measured by GRBAlpha is 8 s and the overall significance during T90 reaches 13 sigma. GRBAlpha entered the outer Van Allen radiation belt during the tail part of the burst. The light curve obtained by GRBAlpha is available here: https://grbalpha.konkoly.hu/static/share/GRB230328B_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. [View Less]
