Perri (SSDC & INAF-OAR), C. Salvaggio (INAF-OAB), T. Sbarrato (INAF-OAB), B. Sbarufatti (INAF-OAB), M.A. Williams (PSU) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team: Swift-XRT has performed follow-up observations of the SVOM/ECLAIRs-detected source sb25061218, collecting 1.7 ks of Photon Counting (PC) mode data between T0+5.9 ks and T0+7.7 ks after the trigger. We have detected 2 sources. These have been automatically classified as follows: * 0 likely counterparts * 0 candidate counterparts * 2 uncatalogued X-ray sources * 0 known X-ray sources Uncatalogued X-ray sources -------------------------- Source 1 (SWIFT J131445.9+544759): ================================== RA (J2000.0): 198.6914 = 13h 14m 45.94s Dec (J2000.0): +54.7999 = +54d 47' 59.6" Error: 11.2 (arcsec, radius, 90% confidence). Detect flag: GOOD Distance: 10.7 arcmin from the SVOM/ECLAIRs position. Mean rate: (9.8 [+3.7, -3.0])e-3 ct s^-1 Mean flux: (4.8 [+1.8, -1.4])e-13 erg cm^-2 s^-1 Peak rate: (9.8 [+3.7, -3.0])e-3 ct s^-1 Peak flux: (4.8 [+1.8, -1.4])e-13 erg cm^-2 s^-1 ECF: 4.85e-11 erg cm^-2 ct^-1, assuming NH=2.15e+20 cm^-2, gamma=1.50; determined from a spectral fit. XMM UL: 2.1e-12 erg cm^-2 s^-1, (0.3-10 keV) so the source is 10.0-sigma above this 3-sigma upper limit. There is no evidence for fading. A SIMBAD object `[VV2006] J131446.6+544804' is 6.6" away. Source 2 (SWIFT J131433.3+544329): ================================== RA (J2000.0): 198.6390 = 13h 14m 33.36s Dec (J2000.0): +54.7249 = +54d 43' 29.6" Error: 9.7 (arcsec, radius, 90% confidence).

[vsnet-grb-info 38760] EP250612a: refined analysis of the EP-WXT and EP-FXT observations
by GCN Circulars 13 Jun '25

13 Jun '25

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40720 SUBJECT: EP250612a: refined analysis of the EP-WXT and EP-FXT observations DATE: 25/06/13 14:07:36 GMT FROM: EP Team at NAOC/CAS <ep_ta(a)bao.ac.cn> Y.L.Hua (PMO, CAS), J. W. Hu, T. Zhao, Y. J. Song ,W. Yuan(NAO, CAS) report on behalf of the Einstein Probe team: The fast X-ray transient EP250612a was detected by the Wide-field X-ray Telescope (WXT) on board the Einstein Probe (EP) mission (Hua et al., GCN 40700), and followed up by several optical and X-ray telescopes (Hua et al., GCN 40709, Li et al., GCN 40716). Refined analysis of the WXT data shows that the event started at T0=2025-06-12T12:27:38 (UTC) and lasted for about 35s before the interruption by the autonomous follow-up observation. The peak flux (0.5-4 keV) is estimated to be 3.9 x 10^-8 erg/s/cm^2. The averaged 0.5-4 keV spectrum can be fitted with an absorbed power-law with a Galactic hydrogen column density of 4.3 x 10^21 cm^-2(-2.1, +2.4) and a photon index of 1.01 (-0.1, +0.1). The derived average unabsorbed 0.5-4 keV flux is 3.67 (-0.74, +1.10) x 10^-9 erg/s/cm^2. The Follow-up X-ray Telescope (FXT) on board EP observed this source autonomously at 2025-06-12 12:30:08, about 3 minutes after T0, with an exposure time of 5858 seconds. Within the WXT error circle, on-ground analysis of the FXT data found an uncatalogued source at R.A. = 229.6534, DEC = -26.7673 (J2000) with an uncertainty of 10 arcsec (radius, 90% C.L. statistical and systematic), which is spatially consistent with the candidate X-ray counterpart detected by Fermi(Fermi GBM team., GCN 40702). The averaged 0.5-10 keV FXT spectrum can be fitted with an absorbed power-law with a Galactic hydrogen column density of 1.49 x 10^21 cm^-2 and a photon index of 2.2 (-0.045, +0.045). The derived unabsorbed 0.5-10 keV flux is 1.37 (-0.03, +0.04) x 10^-11 erg/s/cm^2. The uncertainties are at the 90% confidence level for all the above parameters. EP-FXT will continue monitoring the source in the forthcoming days. Multi-band follow-up observations are encouraged. The contact TA of EP250612a is Y.L.Hua, please contact him via the email ylhua(a)pmo.ac.cn if needed. Launched on January 9, 2024, EP is a space X-ray observatory to monitor the soft X-ray sky with X-ray follow-up capability (Yuan et al. 2022, Handbook of X-ray and Gamma-ray Astrophysics).

Song (NAO, CAS), Y.L. Hua (PMO, CAS), T. Zhao, J. W. Hu , W. Yuan (NAO, CAS), A. Foisseau, C. Lachaud (APC), M. Brunet (IRAP), N. Dagoneau (CEA) report on behalf of the Einstein Probe and SVOM team We performed a follow-up observation of sb25061207 (detected by SVOM/ECLAIRs, Zhang et al, GCN #40697; followed by SVOM/VT, Li et al. GCN #40707 and Swift/XRT, Evans et al. GCN #40711), with the Follow-up X-ray Telescope (FXT) on board the Einstein Probe (EP) mission. The observation began at 2025-06-12 18:37:49, about 8 hours after the detection, and the exposure time is about 6.0 ks. Only 1 uncatalogued source was detected by both FXT-A and FXT-B in the 90% localization error circle provided by SVOM/VT (with a radius of 0.5 arcsec centered at R.A., DEC = 198.09415, +0.07508 deg), as listed below (the FXT flux is taken from FXT-B module). Source name | RA | DEC | Estimated Flux | SNR | Dist from SVOM/VT | | deg | deg | (erg/s/cm^2) | | offset (in arcsec) | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- EP_J131222.6+000433 | 198.0939 | 0.0753 | 5.4(+/-1.7) x 10^-14 | 5.6 | 1.1 (with an uncertainty of 10 arcsec) | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: * EP_J131222.6+000433 was also detected by Swift/XRT (GCN #40711) in a ~2.6 ks observation conducted at T0+8.8 ks after the trigger, with a flux of ~6.0e-13 erg/s/cm^2. The source thus exhibits a decreasing trend in the X-ray flux within two epochs. The above observation was made with the EP-FXT instrument.

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40717 SUBJECT: GRB 250612B: Fermi GBM Observation DATE: 25/06/13 06:34:50 GMT FROM: Rushikesh Sonawane at IISER, TVM <rushikesh23(a)iisertvm.ac.in> R. Sonawane (IISER, TVM) and C. Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "At 12:27:56.19 UT on 12 June 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250612B (trigger 771424081/250612519). which was also detected by EP-WXT (Hua et al. 2025, GCN 40700). The Fermi GBM on-ground location is consistent with the EP-WXT position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 68 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of single emission episode with a duration (T90) of about 10.8 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-4.4 to T0+18.2 s is best fit by a Band function with Epeak = 47.80 +/- 1.53 keV, alpha = -0.92 +/- 0.09, and beta = -3.47 +/- 0.39. A Comp model fits the spectrum equally well, with a power-law index = –0.98 +/- 0.07 and cutoff energy parameterized as Epeak = 49.14 +/- 1.26 keV. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (5.2 +/- 0.2)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+2.9 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 12.1 +/- 0.3 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/" View this GCN Circular online at https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/40717. --- To unsubscribe, open this link in a web browser: https://gcn.nasa.gov/unsubscribe/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6InZzbmV0L…

[vsnet-grb-info 38752] GRB 250612C: Fermi GBM Observation
by GCN Circulars 12 Jun '25

12 Jun '25

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40713 SUBJECT: GRB 250612C: Fermi GBM Observation DATE: 25/06/12 21:54:11 GMT FROM: eliza.neights(a)gmail.com E. Neights (GWU, NASA GSFC) and C. Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "At 14:53:16.58 UT on 12 June 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250612C (trigger 771432801/250612620). which was also detected by SVOM/GRM (Wang et al. 2025, GCN 40708). The Fermi-GBM position was reported in GCN 40708 (Fermi GBM Team 2025). The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 96 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of multiple emission episodes with a duration (T90) of about 1.62 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-0.128 to T0+2.688 s is best fit by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -0.97 +/- 0.01 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 2110 +/- 70 keV. A Band function fits the spectrum equally well with Epeak = 2110 +/- 70 keV, alpha = -0.97 +/- 0.01, and beta = -4 +/- 1. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (2.80 +/- 0.02)E-05 erg/cm^2. The 64-ms peak photon flux measured starting from T0+0.77 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 154 +/- 3 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/" View this GCN Circular online at https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/40713. --- To unsubscribe, open this link in a web browser: https://gcn.nasa.gov/unsubscribe/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6InZzbmV0L…
