• GCN Circular #12472
  S. T. Holland (CRESST/USRA/GSFC), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), W. H. Baumgartner (GSFC/UMBC), D. N. Burrows (PSU), M. M. Chester (PSU), V. D'Elia (ASDC), N. Gehrels (NASA/GSFC), C. Guidorzi (U Ferrara), J. A. Kennea (PSU), C. B. Markwardt (NASA/GSFC), A. Melandri (INAF-OAB), K. L. Page (U Leicester) and G. Stratta (ASDC) report on behalf of the Swift Team:
  At 17:13:04 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located GRB 111022B (trigger=506074). Swift slewed immediately to the burst. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA, Dec 108.951, +49.666 which is

     RA(J2000)  =  07h 15m 48s
     Dec(J2000) = +49d 39' 59"
  

  with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve shows nothing which is typical for an image trigger.
  The XRT began observing the field at 17:15:21.8 UT, 137.3 seconds after the BAT trigger. Using promptly downlinked data we find a bright, fading, uncatalogued X-ray source with an enhanced position: RA, Dec 108.9646, 49.6835 which is equivalent to:

     RA(J2000)  = 07h 15m 51.49s
     Dec(J2000) = +49d 41' 00.4"
  

  with an uncertainty of 2.5 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This location is 69 arcseconds from the BAT onboard position, within the BAT error circle. This position may be improved as more data are received; the latest position is available at http://www.swift.ac.uk/sper.
  A power-law fit to a spectrum formed from promptly downlinked event data gives a column density consistent with the Galactic value of 7.32 x 10^20 cm^-2 (Kalberla et al. 2005).
  The initial flux in the 2.5 s image was 8.17e-10 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.2-10 keV).
  UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 150 seconds with the White filter starting 144 seconds after the BAT trigger. No credible afterglow candidate has been found in the initial data products. The 2.7'x2.7' sub-image covers 100% of the XRT error circle. The typical 3-sigma upper limit has been about 19.6 mag. The 8'x8' region for the list of sources generated on-board covers 100% of the XRT error circle. The list of sources is typically complete to about 18 mag. No correction has been made for the expected extinction corresponding to E(B-V) of 0.07.
  Burst Advocate for this burst is S. T. Holland (Stephen.T.Holland AT nasa.gov). Please contact the BA by email if you require additional information regarding Swift followup of this burst. In extremely urgent cases, after trying the Burst Advocate, you can contact the Swift PI by phone (see Swift TOO web site for information: http://www.swift.psu.edu/too.html.)

  MASTER II robotic telescope located in Tunka(Siberia) was pointed to GRB111022B 183 sec after notice time and 748 sec after GRB time at 2011-10-22 17:25:32 UT in two polarization bands. On our first (150s exposure) set we haven`t found optical transient within SWIFT error-box. So long time of pointing in this site is caused by a mount problem. The 5-sigma upper limit has been about 18.3 mag

  A.P. Beardmore, P.A. Evans, M.R. Goad and J.P. Osborne (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team.
  Using 885 s of XRT Photon Counting mode data and 1 UVOT images for GRB 111022B, we find an astrometrically corrected X-ray position (using the XRT-UVOT alignment and matching UVOT field sources to the USNO-B1 catalogue): RA, Dec = 108.96498, +49.68362 which is equivalent to:

  RA (J2000): 07h 15m 51.59s
  Dec (J2000): +49d 41' 01.0"
  

  with an uncertainty of 1.8 arcsec (radius, 90% confidence).
  This position may be improved as more data are received. The latest position can be viewed at http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_positions. Position enhancement is described by Goad et al. (2007, A&A, 476, 1401) and Evans et al. (2009, MNRAS, 397, 1177).

  Paul Vreeswijk, Annalisa De Cia (U. Iceland), Dong Xu (WIS), Daniele Malesani (DARK), P=E1ll Jakobsson (U. Iceland) report on behalf of a larger collaboration:
  Using ALFOSC on the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) we have obtained R (3 x 300 s) and I-band (5 x 400 s) imaging of the field of the Swift GRB 111022B (Holland et al., GCN 12472), starting on 2011 October 23.097 UT (roughly 9.3 hours after the burst). The seeing during the observations was around 1".
  We do not detect any object within the enhanced XRT error circle (Beardmore et al., GCN 12478), down to limiting magnitudes of about R>23.2 and I>21.9 (calibrated against the USNO-B1 catalog).
  We are grateful to the NOT observer, Terese Hansen (U. Copenhagen), for obtaining these observations.

  We observed GRB 111022B (S.T. Holland et al, GCN12472) with the optical three color (g, Rc, and Ic) CCD camera attached to the MITSuME 50 cm telescope of Akeno Observatory, Yamanashi, Japan. The follow-up observation was started at 18:09:58, ~ 57 min after the BAT trigger because of bad weather.
  We did not find any new point source within the enhanced XRT error circle (A.P. Beardmore et al, GCN12478) in three bands.
  Photometric results and are listed below. We used GSC2.3 catalog for flux calibration.

• GCN Circular #12481
  A.J. Levan (U. Warwick), D. Fox (PSU), N.R. Tanvir (U. Leicester) report for a larger collaboration:
  "We observed the localization of GRB 111022B (Holland et al. GCN 12472) with the Gemini-North telescope, equipped with NIRI. Observations were obtained in poor conditions (2.5" seeing) and began 17 hours after the burst in the YJHK filters.
  We find a single source within the refined XRT error circle (Beardmore et al. GCN 12478). The source is well detected in both H and K, with K~19.0 +/- 0.2, but only very weakly in J. Given the earlier non-detections in the optical (Vreeswijk et al. GCN 12479) the inferred optical-IR colour is red (R-K > 4.2), coupled with the lack of apparent excess N_H this could be indicative of a high redshift burst.
  Analysis is ongoing, and further observations are planned."
• GCN Circular #12484
  V. D'Elia, G. Stratta (ASDC), S. T. Holland (CRESST/USRA/GSFC) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team:
  We have analysed 8.5 ks of XRT data for GRB 111022B (Holland et al. GCN Circ. 12472), from 127 s to 18.5 ks after the BAT trigger. The data comprise 134 s in Windowed Timing (WT) mode (the first 8 s were taken while Swift was slewing) with the remainder in Photon Counting (PC) mode. The enhanced XRT position for this burst was given by Beardmore et al. (GCN. Circ 12478).
  The light curve can be modelled with a series of power-law decays. The initial decay index is alpha=1.7 (+/-0.9). At T+176 s the decay steepens to an alpha of 3.64 (+0.26, -0.22) before breaking again at T+404 s to a final decay with index alpha=2.05 (+0.26, -0.21).
  A spectrum formed from the WT mode data can be fitted with an absorbed power-law with a photon spectral index of 2.41 (+0.14, -0.13). The best-fitting absorption column is 1.46 (+0.27, -0.26) x 10^21 cm^-2, in excess of the Galactic value of 7.3 x 10^20 cm^-2 (Kalberla et al. 2005). The PC mode spectrum has a photon index of 1.59 (+0.15, -0.12) and a best-fitting absorption column consistent with the Galactic value. The counts to observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux conversion factor deduced from this spectrum is 4.5 x 10^-11 (5.0 x 10^-11) erg cm^-2 count^-1.
  A summary of the PC-mode spectrum is thus:

  Total column:	     0 (+2.7, -0) x 10^20 cm^-2
  Galactic foreground: 7.3 x 10^20 cm^-2
  Excess significance: <1.6 sigma
  Photon index:	     1.59 (+0.15, -0.12)

  Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 111022B (trigger #506074) (Holland, et al., GCN Circ. 12472). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 108.927, 49.663 deg which is

     RA(J2000)  =  07h 15m 42.4s
     Dec(J2000) = +49d 39' 45.9"
  

  with an uncertainty of 2.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 82%.
  The mask-weighted light curve shows a multi-peak structure starting at ~T-50 sec and ending at ~T+60 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is 79.1 +/- 13.5 sec (estimated error including systematics).
  The time-averaged spectrum from T-47.84 to T+53.80 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.59 +/- 0.20. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 9.0 +/- 1.2 x 10^-07 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+49.54 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 0.4 +/- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.

  A. S. Moskvitin, V. N. Komarova, V. V. Sokolov and T. N. Sokolova (SAO RAS GRB follow-up team) report:
  The field of GRB 111022B (Holland et al., GCN#12472) was observed with the 6-m BTA/Scorpio on October, 23, 2011. We obtained 3 x 180 sec. frames in the Rc band and 25 x 120 sec. in the Ic band. Observations in Rc began at 00:40:10 (7.5 hours after the trigger), ended at 00:50:21 UT; in Ic began at 01:23:11 UT (8.2 hours after the trigger), ended at 02:22:40 UT. Conditions were clear with a seeing of about 1".2 (FWHM of stellar objects in the Ic co-added image).
  The possible optical counterpart is clearly detected in the Ic band within the 1".5 XRT error circle (according to http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_positions/) at the coordinates:

  R.A.  (J2000) = 07:15:51.56    
  Decl. (J2000) = +49:41:01.7
  

  with the uncertainty 0".2.
  The object magnitude is I = 23.6 +/- 0.3 as compared to USNO-B1.0 Imag of six nearby stars. The high error is due to calibration, the 3-sigma limit of the Ic co-added image is about 24.7. We do not detect the object in the Rc-band down to the 3-sigma level limiting magnitude of about 24.3. The Ic image can be found at ftp://ftp.sao.ru/pub/grb/GRB111022B/GRB111022B_BTA.jpg
  Our results are in agreement with the previously reported NOT observations (Vreeswijk et al., GCN#12479) and do not contradict the idea of a high redshift burst according to Gemini infrared observations (Levan et al., GCN#12481).
  We are grateful to T. A. Fatkhullin and the BTA staff for the help in observations.

  We acquired z'-band images of the GRB 111022B field (Holland et al., GCNC 12472; Beardmore et al., GCNC 12478) with the 10.4m GTC(+OSIRIS) telescope. The observations were carried out on Oct 24.1105--24.1453 UT (33.4--34.3 hours post GRB) with a total exposure time of 31x60s=1860s and a seeing of 1.0-1.5". A faint object is detected coincident with the near-IR and optical candidate (Levan et al. GCNC 12481; Moskvitin et al. GCNC 12491). This source has a very preliminary AB magnitude of z'~25.5.

  V. Rumyantsev (CrAO), A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:
  We observed the field of GRB 111022B (Holland et al. GCN 12472) with Shajn telescope of CrAO observatory starting on Oct. 22 (UT) 20:44:36 under a mean seeing (FWHM) of 3.2 arsces. We took several frames with exposure of 60 s in R-band. Within enhanced Swift-XRT position (Beardmore et al. GCN 12478) we do not detected any optical source. A photometry is based on the USNO B1.0 star 1396-0186811 (07 15 51.05 +49 40 13.0) assuming R=17.07.
