The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 267.8, Dec = 31.5 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 17h 51m, 31d 30'), with a statistical uncertainty of 4.6 degrees.

D'Ai (INAF-IASFPA), E. Ambrosi (INAF-IASFPA), V. D'Elia (SSDC & INAF-OAR), J.D. Gropp (PSU), J. A. Kennea (PSU), N. J. Klingler (GSFC/UMBC/CRESSTII), N. P. M. Kuin (UCL-MSSL), A. Y. Lien (U Tampa), F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC), K. L. Page (U Leicester) and A. Tohuvavohu (U Toronto) report on behalf of the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Team: At 18:16:28 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located GRB 220711B (trigger=1115766). Swift slewed immediately to the burst. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA, Dec 261.993, +24.669 which is RA(J2000) = 17h 27m 58s Dec(J2000) = +24d 40' 10" with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve showed a multi-peaked structure with a duration of about 100 sec. The peak count rate was ~2000 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~0 sec after the trigger. The XRT began observing the field at 18:18:12.3 UT, 103.7 seconds after the BAT trigger. Using promptly downlinked data we find a bright, fading, uncatalogued X-ray source located at RA, Dec 262.02020, 24.67997 which is equivalent to: RA(J2000) = 17h 28m 04.85s Dec(J2000) = +24d 40' 47.9" with an uncertainty of 3.6 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This location is 97 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 https://www.swift.ac.uk/sper. A power-law fit to a spectrum formed from promptly downlinked event data gives a column density in excess of the Galactic value (7.40 x 10^20 cm^-2, Willingale et al. 2013), with an excess column of 2 (+2.26/-2.02) x 10^21 cm^-2 (90% confidence). UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 150 seconds with the White filter starting 113 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 0.067. Burst Advocate for this burst is A. D'Ai (antonino.dai AT inaf.it). 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/) //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 32367 SUBJECT: GRB 220711B: LCO Optical Upper Limits DATE: 22/07/11 22:19:28 GMT FROM: Robert Strausbaugh at U. of the Virgin Islands R. Strausbaugh (U. of the Virgin Islands), A.

Pursimo (NOT), report on behalf of a larger collaboration: We observed the field of GRB 220711B (D'Ai et al., GCN 32366) with the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) equipped with the ALFOSC imager. Observations started in twilight in the r band, so that the first images are not especially deep. A further set of five 200-s z-band images started on 2022 Jul 11.90 UT (3.23 hr after the trigger). Close to the currently available XRT position, we see three sources in the stack of the z-band images (astrometry and photometry are calibrated against the Gaia and Pan-STARRS catalogs, respectively): 1) RA = 17:28:04.49 Dec = +24:40:50.8 z = 21.78 +- 0.13 AB 2) RA = 17:28:04.44 Dec = +24:40:46.7 z = 22.09 +- 0.15 AB 3) RA = 17:28:04.97 Dec = +24:40:44.7 z = 22.60 +- 0.19 AB Sources 2) and 3) are visible in archival images from the Pan-STARRS survey, while source 1) is not, which makes it a viable afterglow candidate. However, sources 1), and 2) are slightly outside (5.6" and 5.7" away) the currently available (unenhanced) XRT position (which has a 3.6" 90% error radius). Sources 2) and 3) are also detected in our NOT r-band images, while source 1) is not. The relation of these sources to GRB 220711B is still under investigation. Further NOT observations are planned. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 32369 SUBJECT: GRB 220711B: Fermi GBM Detection DATE: 22/07/12 00:49:33 GMT FROM: Stephen Lesage at Fermi-GBM Team S. Lesage (UAH) and C. Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "At 18:16:28.06 UT on 11 July 2022, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 220711B (trigger 679256193/220711761) which was also detected by Swift-BAT (A. D'Ai et al. 2022, GCN 32366). The Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization (GCN 32365) is consistent with the Swift-BAT position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 101 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of a multipeaked emission episode with a duration (T90) of about 82 s (10-1000 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-40 to T0+61 s is best fit by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -1.39 +/- 0.07 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 81 +/- 6 keV. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (1.02 +/- 0.04)E-05 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+0.4 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 6.0 +/- 0.4 ph/s/cm^2. A Band function fits the spectrum equally well with Epeak= 79 +/- 8 keV, alpha = -1.37 +/- 0.09 and beta = -2.93 +/- 0.71.

Evans (U. Leicester) and A. D'Ai report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team: We have analysed 6.3 ks of XRT data for GRB 220711B (D'Ai et al. GCN Circ. 32366), from 93 s to 44.7 ks after the BAT trigger. The data comprise 414 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. 32370). The late-time light curve (from T0+4.2 ks) can be modelled with a power-law decay with a decay index of alpha=0.91 (+/-0.11). A spectrum formed from the WT mode data can be fitted with an absorbed power-law with a photon spectral index of 1.94 (+/-0.04). The best-fitting absorption column is 2.59 (+/-0.16) x 10^21 cm^-2, in excess of the Galactic value of 7.4 x 10^20 cm^-2 (Willingale et al. 2013). The PC mode spectrum has a photon index of 2.08 (+/-0.18) and a best-fitting absorption column of 2.3 (+0.7, -0.6) x 10^21 cm^-2. The counts to observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux conversion factor deduced from this spectrum is 3.4 x 10^-11 (4.9 x 10^-11) erg cm^-2 count^-1. A summary of the PC-mode spectrum is thus: Total column: 2.3 (+0.7, -0.6) x 10^21 cm^-2 Galactic foreground: 7.4 x 10^20 cm^-2 Excess significance: 4.4 sigma Photon index: 2.08 (+/-0.18) If the light curve continues to decay with a power-law decay index of 0.91, the count rate at T+24 hours will be 0.016 count s^-1, corresponding to an observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux of 5.4 x 10^-13 (7.9 x 10^-13) erg cm^-2 s^-1.

The partial coding was 19%. The mask-weighted light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts at ~T-40 s and ends at ~T+100 s. The main peak occurs at ~T0. T90 (15-350 keV) is 88.64 +- 19.96 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-37.72 to T+98.89 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.75 +- 0.08. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 6.0 +- 0.3 x 10^-6 erg/cm2.

Swain (IITB), H. Kumar (IITB), K. Angail (IAO), V. Bhalerao (IITB), G. C. Anupama (IIA), S. Barway (IIA) report on behalf of the GIT team: We observed GRB 220711B detected by Fermi (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 32365; Lesage, GCN 32369), Swift (D'Ai et al., GCN 32366) and NOT optical (Malesani et al., GCN 32368), with the 0.7m GROWTH-India Telescope (GIT). The observations started at 18:22:15 UT on 2022-07-11, 5.78 mins after the Fermi trigger. We obtained multiple 300-sec exposures in the g', r' and i' filters. We did not detect any new source in our stacked images within the 2.1 arcsec radius circle around R.A.= 17h 28m 4.56s, Dec.= +24d 40' 51.5" (Beardmore et al. GCN #32370). The obtained upper limits follow as: ------------------------------------------------------------------- JD (mid) | T_mid-T0(hrs) | Exposure (sec) | Filter | Lim_mag (5-sigma) | ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2459772.307085455 | 1.09 | 10 x 300 (stacked) | r' | > 21.03 | 2459772.313860030 | 1.25 | 5 x 300 (stacked) | g' | > 20.50 | 2459772.330168085 | 1.65 | 5 x 300 (stacked) | i' | > 20.34 | ------------------------------------------------------------------- While the first image was observed within just 6 minutes of the burst, the observing conditions were suboptimal and the first r' image has a limiting magnitude of ~19. No source is detected in that single 300-s exposure either. These upper limits are consistent with Strausbaugh et al.(GCN #32367), and Klingler et al.(GCN #32371), and with detection by Malesani et al (GCN #32368, 32377) given the high r-z colour they have inferred. The magnitudes are calibrated against PanSTARRS DR1 (Chambers et al., 2016) and not corrected for Galactic extinction. The GROWTH India Telescope (GIT) is a 70-cm telescope with a 0.7-degree field of view, set up by the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA) and the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) with funding from DST-SERB and IUSSTF. It is located at the Indian Astronomical Observatory (Hanle), operated by IIA. We acknowledge funding by the IITB alumni batch of 1994, which partially supports operations of the telescope.

Komesh (NU), B. Grossan (UCB, NU), Z. Maksut (NU), M. Krugov (FAI), report on behalf of the Energetic Cosmos Laboratory: The Nazarbayev University Transient Telescope at Assy-Turgen Astrophysical Observatory (NUTTelA-TAO) observed the field of GRB 220711B on receipt of an automated GCN / BAT position alert, observing in Sloan g', r' and i' bands, with the Burst Simultaneous Three-Channel Imager (BSTI; Grossan, Kumar & Smoot 2019, JHEA, 32, 14). We received the alert at UT 2022-07-11 18:16:50, 22 seconds after  the BAT trigger time, and started observations at UT 18:17:02, 12 s after receipt, 34 s after the BAT trigger. Observations were made under partially cloudy conditions. No new or changing sources consistent with the XRT position (Beardmore 2022, GCN 32370) were detected. The observations fully cover the UVOT/XRT observation time interval and partly cover the prompt emission time (D'Ai 2022, GCN 32366). Note that these observations provide essentially full-time coverage, simultaneous in all three bands. We report the following results: start time t-t0(s) end time UL g' UL r' ULi' exposure_time (s) ------------ -------- ----------- ------ ------ ----- ------ 18:17:02 34 18:18:02 18.3 18.1 17.7 60 18:18:17 109 18:23:17 19.2 18.9 18.7 300 start time is in UT. t-t0(s) gives the time since trigger, in seconds. UL gives the 5 sigma upper limit sensitivity in magnitudes, for images co-added to the given exposure time. The first row in the table corresponds to co-adds of an initial short exposure image sequence of 0.3 s (these sub-second exposures are read-noise suppressed by our EMCCD cameras, with high gain electron multiplication active; other images are taken in conventional CCD operation mode) for g' and r', and 7.5 s for i'. The second row corresponds to co-adds from a continuing series of 3 s exposures for g' and r', and 15 s exposures for i'.  Calibration was done with 4 bright Pan-STARRS catalog stars on our images. We caution the reader that these are preliminary results, without color or other corrections. Please also note that times are approximate. ---------------------------------- NU = Nazarbayev University, Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan UCB = University of California, Berkeley, USA HKUST = Hong Kong University of Science and Technology FAI = Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute, Kazakhstan The NUTTelA-TAO Team acknowledges the support of the staff of the Assy-Turgen Astrophysical Observatory, Almaty, Kazakhstan, and the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute, Almaty, Kazkhstan. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 32383 SUBJECT: GRB 220711B, GROND observations DATE: 22/07/13 14:52:45 GMT FROM: Ana Nicuesa at TLS Tautenburg A. Nicuesa Guelbenzu, S. Klose (both TLS Tautenburg), and A. Rau (MPE Garching) report: We observed the field of GRB 220711B (D'Ai et al., GCN 32366; Beardmore et al. GCN 32370) with GROND mounted at the 2.2m MPG telescope at La Silla Observatory (Chile). Observations started at 01:53 UT on July 13, 2022, about 32 hr after the GRB trigger and were on target for 40 minutes. They were performed at an average seeing of 1.0 arcsec and at an airmass of 1.7. The fading source discovered by Malesani et al. (GCN 32377) is detected in the combined JHK images. For the individual bands we can only provide the following preliminary upper limits (midtime of 2:20 UT): g' > 23.0, r' > 23.5, i' > 23.2, z' > 19.8, J > 21.7, H > 21.1, K > 20.1 (AB mag; 3 sigma). The given limits are derived based on calibrating the optical images against the SDSS catalog and the JHK data against 2MASS stars.

The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors. No real-time CGBM GCN notice was distributed about this trigger because the real-time communication from the ISS was off (loss of signal). The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure which starts at T-39.5 sec, peaks at T-2.4 sec, and ends at T+93.7 sec. The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 82.7 +/- 3.8 sec and 15.7 +/- 4.0 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.
