TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44572 SUBJECT: GRB 260511B: GOTO optical counterpart detection DATE: 26/05/12 08:15:30 GMT FROM: Sergey Belkin at Monash University <sergey.belkin(a)monash.edu> S. Belkin, G. Ramsay, D. O'Neill, B. P. Gompertz, M. Wortley, R. Starling, K. Ackley, M. Dyer, J. Lyman, 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, M. Pursiainen, on behalf of GOTO collaboration We report on optical observations with the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO; Steeghs et al. 2022, Dyer et al. 2024) in response to the Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM team, GCN 44542) and SVOM/ECLAIRs (Godet et al. GCN 44543) triggers for GRB 260511B. Observations started at 2026-05-11 21:09:05 UT, (+10.13h post trigger) in the GOTO L-band (400-700 nm). Images were processed immediately after acquisition using the GOTO pipeline. Difference imaging was performed using deeper template observations (Lyman et al. 2026). We detect the previously reported optical counterpart of GRB 260511B at a position consistent with the source reported by Wu et al. (GCN 44547), Sasada et al. (GCN 44549), Jiang et al. (GCN 44551), Wu et al. (GCN 44552), Vijaykumar et al. (GCN 44561), de Ugarte Postigo et al. (GCN 44565), Lee et al. (GCN 44567), and Li et al. (GCN 44568). The source is detected in the GOTO L-band (400-700 nm) with L=19.45 ± 0.09 AB mag at a mid-time of 2026-05-11 21:44:06 UT (+10.73 h). 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).

Wei (NAOC) reports on behalf of SVOM follow-up team The follow-up for the optical counterpart (Wu et al. GCN 44547; Sasada et al. GCN 44549; Jiang et al. GCN 44551; Wu et al. GCN 44552; Waratkar et al. GCN 44556; Li et al. GCN 44557; Vijaykumar et al. GCN 44561) of GRB 260511B (Fermi GBM team GCN 44542; Godet et al. GCN 44543; Roberts et al. GCN 44544; Arya et al. GCN 44560; de Ugarte Postigo et al., GCN 44565; Lee et al, GCN 44567; Li et al., GCN 44568) within the errorbox of X-ray counterpart (Godet et al. GCN 44543; Li et al., GCN 44566;) was performed at 2026-05-11T12:46:21 UTC, about 1.76 hours after the trigger, using the NAOC 2.16m telescope at Xinglong observatory, China. A total of 2*1800s exposure was performed by BEFOSC spectrograph in our spectroscopic observation. The wavelength ranges from 4000-8800A in the obsever frame. After combining the two frames, absorption features of multiple ions: CIV, FeII and MgII can be identified at a common redshift of ~2.006. In addition, there is a feature possibly due to MgII double let resulted from an intervening system at redshift of 1.435. Our results are consistent with the report of redshift (de Ugarte Postigo et al., GCN 44565). The analysis of this spectrum was carried out with the help of the zHunter tool (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15189495) View this GCN Circular online at https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/44571. --- To unsubscribe, open this link in a web browser: https://gcn.nasa.gov/unsubscribe/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6InZzbmV0L…

Wang (THU), R. Shi (PMO), Y. Liu (NAOC, CAS) on behalf of the Einstein Probe (EP) team: EP-FXT performed a follow-up observation of the SVOM/ECLAIRs-detected burst GRB 260510B (SVOM/sb26051001, Saccardi et al., GCN 44515). The follow-up obervation started at 2026-05-10T13:15:11 UTC, approximately 55 minutes after the SVOM trigger, with a total exposure time of 6.1 ks. On-ground analysis of the FXT data found an uncatalogued fading source at R.A., Dec. = 173.2323, -34.5399 (J2000) with an uncertainty of about 10 arcsec (radius, 90% C.L. statistical and systematic) within the ECLAIRs error circle. The average FXT 0.5-10 keV spectrum can be fitted with an absorbed power-law model, with the hydrogen column density fixed at the Galactic value and a photon index of 2.24 (-0.56/+0.60). The derived average unabsorbed flux in the 0.5-10 keV band is 1.17 (-0.3/+1.7)×10^-12 erg s^-1 cm^-2.

Malesani (DAWN/NBI and Radboud), N. A. Rakotondrainibe (LAM), B. Schneider (LAM), N. R. Tanvir (Univ. Leicester), A. M. García Rodríguez (GTC) and D. González González (GTC) report: We observed the optical counterpart (Wu et al. GCN 44547; Sasada et al. GCN 44549; Jiang et al. GCN 4455; Wu et al. GCN 44552; Waratkar et al. GCN 44556; Li et al.

GCN 44560) using the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) equipped with the OSIRIS+ instrument. In the 30-s acquisition image (beginning on 2026-05-11 at 21:05:13.010 UT, that is 10.08 hr after trigger), the optical afterglow is well detected with a preliminary magnitude of r = 19.30 ± 0.05 (AB), calibrated against nearby SDSS objects, and not corrected for Galactic extinction. A total of 3 spectra of 900 s were secured, starting on 2026-05-11 at 21:11:43.011 UT (10.19 hr after trigger), using grism R1000B. Continuum is visible over the complete wavelength range 3620-7800 AA. A trough is detected at the blue edge of the spectrum at ~3650 AA, which we identify as a DLA. A number of strong metal absorption features are detected, which we interpret as due to SII, SiII, SiII*, OI, CII, SiIV, CIV, FeII, FeII* AlII, NiII, NiII*, AlIII, CrII, ZnII, and MnII all at a common redshift of 2.006 +/- 0.001, which we suggest to be the redshift of GRB 260511B. Multiple intervening systems are also detected in the spectrum, including a strong system at z = 1.437 with lines due to SiII, CIV, FeII, AlII, AlIII, MgII.

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44564 SUBJECT: GRB 260510C: Fermi GBM Observation DATE: 26/05/11 20:51:58 GMT FROM: Eva MP at INAOE <eva.palafox(a)gmail.com> E. Palafox (INAOE, Mexico) reports on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "At 17:13:43.99 UT on 10 May 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260510C (trigger 800126028/260510718), which was also detected by SVOM/ECLAIRs (Gotz et al. 2026, GCN 44521), MAXI (Iwakiri et al. 2026, GCN 44526), COLIBRI (Angulo et al. 2026, GCN 44530), SVOM/VT (Li et al. 2026, GCN 44527 and GCN 44540), EP-FXT (Fu et al. 2026, GCN 44541) and AstroSat CZTI (Arya et al. 2026,GCN 44544). The Fermi GBM on-ground location is consistent with the SVOM/ECLAIRs position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 68 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of two bright emission episodes with a duration (T90) of about 162 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-8.2 to T0+143.4 s is best fit by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -1.3 +/- 0.2 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 176 +/- 55 keV. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (4.9 +/- 0.7)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+120 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 2.6 +/- 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/44564. --- To unsubscribe, open this link in a web browser: https://gcn.nasa.gov/unsubscribe/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6InZzbmV0L…

We observed the field of the GRB 260509A (Götz et al., GCN 44504) with the Zeiss-1000, 1m telescope of the SAO RAS equipped with the CCD photometer. We obtained 12 * 300 sec. images in Rc band on May 10, 18:18:31--19:49:52 UT (21.22 hr after the trigger). The OT (O'Neill et al., GCN 44505; Saccardi et al., GCN 44506; Wu et al., GCN 44507; Sánchez Álvarez et al., GCN 44509; Zheng et al., GCN 44510; Kechin et al., GCN 44512; Belkin, GCN 44513; Corcoran et al., GCN 44514; Bochenek and Perley, GCN 44516) is marginally detected with the brightness of R = 24.0 +/- 0.3. This preliminary photometry is based on nearby stars from the USNO-B1 catalogue (R2 magnitudes) and is not corrected for the Galactic extinction.
