TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44838 SUBJECT: GRB 260527A/EP260527a: 6 GHz VLA observations DATE: 26/06/05 10:05:25 GMT FROM: muskan.yadav@students.uniroma2.eu M. Yadav, R. Ricci, E. Troja (U Rome) report: We observed the field of EP260527a (Yang et al., GCN 44718), likely associated with the short GRB 260527A (Svinkin et al., GCN 44722, Yu et al., GCN 44724; Kawakubo et al., GCN 44726, Wang et al., GCN 44735, Svinkin et al., GCN 44744, Cheung et al., GCN 44757) with Very Large Array in C-band at the centre frequency of 6 GHz with a bandwidth of 4 GHz in two epochs on May 29th 2026 (2.01 days after the trigger) and June 4th 2026 (8.05 days after the trigger). Data were calibrated and imaged using standard procedures in CASA (6.6.6.18). 1331+305 (3C286) was used for flux density and bandpass calibration and J1224+0330 was used for complex gain calibration. The radio source reported by Schroeder et al. (GCN 44740) is detected in our first epoch at a consistent position and flux level, and is seen to fade below detection threshold in our second epoch, yielding a preliminary 3-sigma upper limit of ~30 uJy/beam. We therefore confirm this source as the radio counterpart of EP260527a. We thank the VLA staff for executing the observations.
