Itoh (Miyazaki U.), K. Yamaoka (Nagoya U.) report on behalf of the MAXI team: The MAXI/GSC detected a bright uncatalogued hard X-ray transient source around UT 2015-01-10T10:23.37. Unfortunately, after MAXI detected the burst for about 10 sec, no data were obtained (or downloaded yet) for 27 seconds. As a result, we can not determine the X-ray flux and the source position correctly. Using the data, we obtain a rectangular error box for the transient source with the following corners: (R.A., Dec) = (215.959 deg, 18.705 deg) = (14 23 50, +18 42 18) (J2000) (R.A., Dec) = (215.630 deg, 19.420 deg) = (14 22 31, +19 25 10) (J2000) (R.A., Dec) = (218.120 deg, 20.331 deg) = (14 32 28, +20 19 52) (J2000) (R.A., Dec) = (218.422 deg, 19.605 deg) = (14 33 41, +19 36 18) (J2000) There is an additional systematic uncertainty of 0.1 deg (90% containment radius). The 4-10 keV flux is roughly about 200 mCrab. We also note that Fermi-GBM also detected this burst almost simultaneously. There was no significant excess flux in the previous transit at UT 08:50, and in the next transit at UT 11:56 with an upper limit of 20 mCrab for each.

Yu (MPE) report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 10:23:38.23 UT on 10 January 2015, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor triggered and located GRB 150110A (trigger 442578221 / 150110433). which was also detected by the MAXI/GSC (Negoro et al. 2015, GCN 17290) The GBM on-ground location is consistent with the MAXI/GSC position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 51 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of 2 peaks with a combined duration (T90) of about 74 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-2.05 s to T0+73.73 s is best fit by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -0.99 +/- 0.06 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 77.2 +/- 2.7 keV The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (2.81 +/- 0.06)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+61.1 s in the 8-1000 keV band is 7.49 +/- .286 ph/s/cm^2. The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog." //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 17299 SUBJECT: GRB 150110A: MASTER inspection DATE: 15/01/11 15:58:55 GMT FROM: Vladimir Lipunov at Moscow State U/Krylov Obs E.
