TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 23701 SUBJECT: MAGIC detects the GRB 190114C in the TeV energy domain DATE: 19/01/15 01:56:36 GMT FROM: Razmik Mirzoyan at MPI/MAGIC R. Mirzoyan (MPP Munich), K.

Takahashi (ICRR University of Tokyo), Y. Chai (MPP Munich), A. Moralejo (IFAE Barcelona) and the MAGIC Collaboration report: On January 14, 2019, the MAGIC telescopes located at the Observatorio Roque de los Muchachos on the Canary island of La Palma, detected very-high-energy gamma-ray emission from GRB 190114C (Gropp et al., GCN 23688; Tyurina et al., GCN 23690, de Ugarte Postigo et al., GCN 23692, Lipunov et al. GCN 23693, J. Selsing et al. GCN 23695). The observation was triggered by the Swift-BAT alert and it started about 50s after the Swift T0: 20:57:03.19. The GRB data of MAGIC shows a clear excess of gamma-ray events with the significance >20 sigma in the first 20 min (starting at T0+50s) for energies >300GeV. The relatively high detection threshold is due to the large zenith angle of observations (~60 deg.) and the presence of partial moon. After the first bright flash the source is quickly fading. The MAGIC point of contact for this burst is R. Mirzoyan (Razmik.Mirzoyan@mpp.mpg.de). Burst Advocate for this burst is K. Noda ( nodak@icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp)
