TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40795 SUBJECT: GRB 250619B: Swift/BAT-GUANO localization skymap of a burst DATE: 25/06/20 17:11:42 GMT FROM: Jimmy DeLaunay at Penn State <delauj2@gmail.com> James DeLaunay (PSU), Samuele Ronchini (PSU), Aaron Tohuvavohu (Caltech), Jamie A. Kennea (PSU), Tyler Parsotan (NASA GSFC), Maia Williams (PSU) report: Swift/BAT did not localize GRB 250619B onboard (T0: 2025-06-19T23:36:17.17 UTC, Fermi/GBM trig 772068982) The Fermi notice, distributed in near real-time, triggered the Swift Mission Operations Center operated Gamma-ray Urgent Archiver for Novel Opportunities (GUANO; Tohuvavohu et al. 2020, ApJ, 900, 1). Upon trigger by this notice, GUANO sent a command to the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) to save 200 seconds of BAT event-mode data from [-50,+150] seconds around the time of the burst. All the requested event mode data was delivered to the ground. The BAT likelihood search, NITRATES (DeLaunay + Tohuvavohu 2022, ApJ, 941, 169), performed on the temporal window [T0-20 s, T0+20 s], detects the burst with a sqrt(TS) of 7.9 in a 8.192 s analysis time bin, starting at T0 - 2.048 s. Using the NITRATES analysis, parameter estimation was performed to obtain the localization of this burst in the form of a HEALPIX Multi-Order Coverage (MOC) skymap. This localization accounts for both statistical and systematic errors. More details in the creation and calibration of these maps will soon be published (DeLaunay et al. 2025. in prep) The 90% credible area is 10,760 deg2 and the 50% credible area is 1,197 deg2. The integrated probability inside the coded field of view is 30%. The NITRATES skymap is consistent with the Fermi localization reported in the final position notice (GCN 40788). The combined Fermi/GBM+NITRATES 90% credible area is 652 deg2 and the 50% credible area is 146 deg2.
