TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 20399 SUBJECT: LIGO/Virgo G268556: CALET Observations DATE: 17/01/08 06:15:56 GMT FROM: Takanori Sakamoto at Aoyama Gakuin U T. Sakamoto, A. Yoshida, Y. Kawakubo, M. Moriyama, Y. Yamada (AGU), K. Yamaoka (Nagoya U), S. Nakahira (JAXA), I. Takahashi (IPMU), Y. Asaoka, S. Ozawa, S. Torii (Waseda U), Y. Shimizu, T. Tamura (Kanagawa U), W. Ishizaki (ICRR), M. L. Cherry (LSU), S. Ricciarini (U of Florence), P. S. Marrocchesi (U of Siena) and the CALET collaboration: The CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) was operating at the trigger time of G268556 (GCN Circ. 20364). No CGBM on-board trigger occurred at the time of the event. Based on the LIGO BAYESTAR localization sky map, the southern arc of the high probability area was in the field-of-view of CGBM. The summed LIGO probabilities inside the HXM and the SGM field of view are 37% and 40%. Based on the analysis of the light curve data with 0.125 sec time resolution from -60 sec to 60 sec from the trigger time, we found no significant excess around the trigger time in either the HXM (7-1000 keV) or the SGM (0.1-20 MeV) data. The CALET Calorimeter (CAL) was operating in high energy trigger mode at the trigger time of G268556. Using CAL data, we have searched for gamma-ray events above 10 GeV from -60 sec to +60 sec from the GW trigger time and found no candidates. The summed LIGO probabilities inside the CAL field of view is ~30%, which is largely overlapping with the HXM's FOV.
