15 Apr '26

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44305 SUBJECT: GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw: EP-FXT X-ray counterpart detection DATE: 26/04/16 01:54:19 GMT FROM: Dong Xu at NAOC/CAS <dxu(a)nao.cas.cn> D. Xu (NAOC), B. P. Gompertz (U. Birmingham), S.Q. Jiang (NAOC) report on behalf of a large group: We performed a ToO observation at the location of GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw, a candidate orphan GRB afterglow (O'Neill et al., GCN 44301) with the Follow-up X-ray Telescope (FXT) onboard the Einstein Probe (EP) mission. The observation started at 18:49:01 on 2026-04-15 UT with a total exposure time of ~3000 s. An uncatalogued X-ray source, with a flux of ~ 1.7 x 10^-13 erg/cm^2/s (0.5-10 keV; observed), is detected at coordinates R.A.(J2000) = 13:22:13.34 Dec.(J2000) = +37:02:26.88 with an uncertainty of 15 arcsec, being consistent with the location of GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw, confirming it's the soft X-ray counterpart of GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw. The X-ray counterpart detection at ~ 3 days since the event happening favors its nature of an afterglow of a high-energy burst. Further EP-FXT observations are scheduled.

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44303 SUBJECT: NOT r-band observations of the transient GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw DATE: 26/04/15 23:26:03 GMT FROM: Laura Cotter at University College Dublin <laura.cotter(a)ucdconnect.ie> G.

[vsnet-grb-info 42424] GRB 260415B: NuSTAR detection of long prompt emission

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44302 SUBJECT: GRB 260415B: NuSTAR detection of long prompt emission DATE: 26/04/15 22:13:57 GMT FROM: Gaurav Waratkar at Caltech <gauravwaratkar(a)iitb.ac.in> G. Waratkar (Caltech) and B. Grefenstette (Caltech) report on behalf of the NuSTAR Search for INteresting Gamma-ray Signals (SINGS) working group: The NuSTAR SINGS working group reports the detection of prompt emission from the long-duration GRB 260415B in both the NuSTAR CsI anti-coincidence shields. Details of the search algorithm will be described in a future paper. The NuSTAR SINGS algorithm, triggered at 2026-04-15T02:28:55.54 UTC, shows a detection of GRB 260415B, also detected by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 44300) and CALET/GBM (Trigger 1460255329). The NuSTAR CsI shield data are recorded at 1 Hz. We detect a ~30-s burst followed by a ~20-s burst after a ~20-s gap, consistent with CALET/GBM and the broad bright Fermi/GBM peak at ~200 s post-trigger. The peak count rate is ~1500-cps with a baseline rate of ~1000-cps during this time period. We do not see evidence in the signal above 100 keV in the CZT detectors. The Fermi/GBM localization (GCN 44300) at RA = 229.43, Dec = 24.94 implies an offset from the NuSTAR boresight of 71-deg (i.e. from the side of the instrument) and an offset from the geocenter of 107-deg. Lightcurves and analysis for this GRB can be found here: https://nustarsoc.caltech.edu/NuSTAR_Public/grbs/reports/2026/260415B Information on NuSTAR SINGS can be found here: https://nustarsoc.caltech.edu/NuSTAR_Public/grbs/ NuSTAR is a NASA Small Explorer mission led by Caltech and managed by JPL for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington.

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44301 SUBJECT: GOTO discovery of fast-fading transient GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw, a candidate orphan afterglow DATE: 26/04/15 18:38:37 GMT FROM: d.s.oneill(a)bham.ac.uk D. O'Neill, M. Wortley, M. Pursiainen, B. P. Gompertz, J. Lyman, R. Starling, G. Ramsay, K. Ackley, M. Dyer, K. Ulaczyk, D. Steeghs, D. Galloway, V. Dhillon, P. O'Brien, K. Noysena, R. Kotak, R. Breton, J. Casares, L. Nuttall, B. Godson, T. Killestein, A. Kumar, on behalf of GOTO collaboration, A. Aryan, T.-W. Chen, Y.-H. Lee, T. K. Ho Ngo, and H.-Y. Hsiao (all NCU), report: We report on the discovery of the rapidly-evolving transient GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw with the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO; Steeghs et al. 2022, Dyer et al. 2024) during survey operations. The object was discovered at 2026-04-13 23:17:32 UT at co-ordinates: RA,DEC (J2000): = 13:22:13.21, +37:02:15.16, 200.555049, 37.03754 Observations consisted of 4 x 45s exposures taken in the L band (400-700 nm). Images were processed immediately after acquisition using the GOTO pipeline. Difference imaging was performed using deeper template observations. The source was initially detected with L = 19.00 ± 0.08 AB mag at t0=2026-04-13 23:17:32 UT before fading to L = 19.61 ± 0.18 AB mag at 2026-04-14 03:21:27 UT (t0 +4.06h), suggesting a decay rate of ~3.5 mag/d. No underlying source is detected in either the Pan-STARRS or SDSS surveys that would suggest the presence of a host galaxy or stellar counterpart. Additionally, the high Galactic latitude (b = +78.15 deg) would be unusual for a local stellar origin. We performed follow-up observations with the 1 m Lulin One-meter Telescope (LOT) at Lulin Observatory, Taiwan, as part of the Kinder collaboration (Chen et al. 2025, ApJ, 983, 86). The first epoch of LOT observations began at 2026-04-15 14:41 UT (MJD 61145.612, t0 +39.40h). The transient was detected with an r-band magnitude r=21.55 ± 0.07 AB mag. Using this combined dataset, the estimated decay index ranges from -1.6 < alpha < -1.1, assuming explosion times of 12h to 6h pre-discovery, consistent with the decay indices seen in GRB afterglows. GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw is not detected in the most recent pre-discovery GOTO observations taken at 2026-04-12 00:00 UT (t0 -47.29h) to a 3-sigma limiting magnitude of L > 20.5. This constrains its onset to a window of < 2 days before discovery. Despite the apparent lack of an underlying star and an evolution consistent with GRB afterglows, a local stellar origin cannot be definitively excluded with the current data. We encourage further follow-up to determine the nature of this transient. EP/FXT ToO observations have been scheduled. GOTO magnitudes were calibrated using ATLAS-REFCAT2 (Tonry et al. 2018). LOT magnitudes were calibrated using SDSS stars. Observations are not corrected for Galactic extinction. GOTO (https://goto-observatory.org) is a network of telescopes that is principally funded by the STFC and operated at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory on La Palma, Spain, and Siding Spring Observatory in NSW, Australia, on behalf of a consortium including the University of Warwick, Monash University, Armagh Observatory & Planetarium, the University of Leicester, the University of Sheffield, the National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand (NARIT), the University of Turku, the University of Portsmouth, the University of Manchester, the University of Birmingham and the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias (IAC).

14 Apr '26

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44297 SUBJECT: GRB 260414A: Glowbug gamma-ray detection DATE: 26/04/14 23:14:50 GMT FROM: C.C. Cheung at Naval Research Lab <Teddy.Cheung(a)nrl.navy.mil> C.C. Cheung, R. Woolf, M. Kerr, J.E. Grove (NRL), A. Goldstein (USRA), C.A. Wilson-Hodge, D. Kocevski (MSFC), and M.S. Briggs (UAH) report: The Glowbug gamma-ray telescope [1,2,3], operating on the International Space Station, reports the detection of GRB 260414A, which was detected by Fermi/GBM (GCN 44293). Using an adaptive window with a resolution of 32-ms, the burst onset is determined to be 2026-04-14 06:31:55.248 with a duration of 21.5 s and a total significance of about 21 sigma. The detection occurred during a time of high background as Glowbug was entering the northern radiation belt. The brightest peaks in the light curve are at ~T0+3.5s and ~T0+12.5s. The analysis results presented here are preliminary and use a response function that lacks a detailed characterization of the surrounding passive structure of the ISS. Glowbug is a NASA-funded technology demonstrator for sensitive, low-cost gamma-ray transient telescopes developed, built, and operated by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) with support from the University of Alabama in Huntsville, USRA, and NASA MSFC. It was launched on 2023 March 15 aboard the Department of Defense Space Test Program’s STP-H9 to the ISS and operated until 2024 April when it was put in safe storage on orbit. Glowbug was removed from storage and resumed operation on 2025 September 12. [1] Grove, J.E. et al. 2020, Proc. Yamada Conf. LXXI, arXiv:2009.11959 [2] Woolf, R.S. et al. 2022, Proc.
