TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 42659 SUBJECT: LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA S251112cm: Coverage and upper limits from MAXI/GSC observations DATE: 25/11/13 02:29:27 GMT FROM: Yuta Kawakubo at Aoyama Gakuin University <kawakubo@phys.aoyama.ac.jp> H. Hiramatsu, S. Sugita, M. Serino, Y. Kawakubo, Y. Kondo (AGU) H. Negoro, M. Nakajima, K. Takagi (Nihon U.), N. Kawai, T. Mihara, (RIKEN), report on behalf of the MAXI team: We examined MAXI/GSC all-sky X-ray images (2-20 keV) after compact binary merger candidate S251112cm at 2025-11-12 15:18:45.362 UTC (GCN #42650). At the trigger time of S251112cm, the high-voltage of MAXI/GSC was on. The instantaneous field of view of GSC at the GW trigger time covered 1% of the 90% credible region of the bayestar sky map, in which we found no significant new X-ray source. The first one-orbit (92 min) scan observation with GSC after the event covered 72% of the 90% credible region of the bayestar skymap from 15:18:45 to 16:50:09 UTC (T0+0 to T0+5484 sec). No significant new source was found in the region in the one-orbit scan observation. A typical 1-sigma averaged upper limit obtained in one scan observation is 20 mCrab at 2-20 keV.
