Kennea (PSU), report: Swift/BAT did not localize GRB 220211A onboard (T0: 2022-02-11T01:07:48 UTC, Fermi/GBM GCN 31570). The Fermi notice, distributed in near real-time, triggered the Swift Mission Operations Center operated Gamma-ray Urgent Archiver for Novel Opportunities (GUANO; Tohuvavohu et al. 2020, ApJ, 900, 1). Upon trigger by this notice, GUANO sent a command to the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) to save 200 seconds of BAT event-mode data from [-50,+150] seconds around the time of the burst. All the requested event mode data was delivered to the ground. The BAT likelihood search, NITRATES (DeLaunay + Tohuvavohu, arXiv:2111.01769), detects the burst with a sqrt(TS) of 11.3 in a 0.128 s analysis time bin. The duration of the burst is ~64 ms. NITRATES results are consistent with a burst coming from outside the coded FOV, with DeltaLLHOut of 3. An out of FOV origin is consistent with the Fermi/GBM localization (GCN 31570). See Section 9.1 and Figure 20 in the NITRATES paper for brief descriptions and interpretation of sqrt(TS), DeltaLLHPeak, and DeltaLLHOut. GUANO is a fully autonomous, extremely low latency, spacecraft commanding pipeline designed for targeted recovery of BAT event mode data around the times of compelling astrophysical events to enable more sensitive GRB searches.

Tohuvavohu on behalf of the Swift-BAT team, report: The short-duration GRB 220211A (Fermi-GBM detection: The Fermi GBM team, GCN Circ. 31570; Swift/BAT-GUANO detection: Tohuvavohu et al., GCN Circ. 31582) has been detected by Fermi (GBM trigger 666234473), INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS), Konus-Wind, and Swift (BAT), so far, at about 4069 s UT (01:07:49). The burst was outside the coded field of view of the BAT. We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose coordinates are: --------------------------------------------- RA(2000), deg Dec(2000), deg --------------------------------------------- Center: 208.379 (13h 53m 31s) +37.218 (+37d 13' 05") Corners: 209.472 (13h 57m 53s) +52.187 (+52d 11' 14") 209.036 (13h 56m 09s) +51.894 (+51d 53' 39") 206.213 (13h 44m 51s) +22.653 (+22d 39' 12") 206.450 (13h 45m 48s) +22.322 (+22d 19' 18") --------------------------------------------- The error box area is 8 sq. deg, and its maximum dimension is 29.6 deg (the minimum one is 16.1 arcmin). The Sun distance was about 116 deg. This box may be improved. The IPN localization is consistent with, but reduces the area of, the Fermi GBM Final Real-time position (GCN Circ. 31570) and BALROG (https://grb.mpe.mpg.de/grb/GRB220211047/) localizations.

Veres and C. Meegan (both UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 01:07:48.88 UT on 11 February 2022, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 220211A (trigger 666234473 / 220211047), which was also detected by the Swift/BAT-GUANO (Tohuvavohu et al. GCN 31852). The Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization was reported in GCN 31570. The GBM light curve consists of a single short pulse with a duration (T90) of about 0.4 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-64 ms to T0+128 ms is adequately fit by a simple power law function with index -1.42 +/- 0.07. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (1.28 +/- 0.19)E-6 erg/cm^2. The 64 ms peak photon flux measured starting from T0-64 ms in the 10-1000 keV band is 12.8 +/- 2.7 ph/s/cm^2.

Svinkin, D. Frederiks, A.Lysenko, A. Ridnaia, A. Tsvetkova, M. Ulanov, and T. Cline, on behalf of the Konus-Wind team, report: The short-duration GRB 220211A (Fermi-GBM detection: The Fermi GBM team, GCN Circ. 31570; Veres and Meegan GCN Circ. 31591; Swift/BAT-GUANO detection: Tohuvavohu et al., GCN Circ. 31582; IPN triangulation: Ridnaia et al., GCN Circ. 31584) triggered Konus-Wind (KW) at T0=4070.727 s UT (01:07:50.727). The burst light curve shows a single pulse with the total duration of ~54 ms (20-1500 keV). The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB220211_T04070/ As observed by Konus-Wind, the burst had a fluence of 3.86(-0.53,+0.82)x10^-7 erg/cm^2 and a 16-ms peak energy flux, measured from T0-0.040 s, of 9.6(-2.1,+2.6)x10^-6 erg/cm^2/s (both in the 20 keV - 10 MeV energy range). Since the main fraction of the burst emission was detected before the trigger, the spectral analysis was performed using the KW 3-channel light curve data. Modelling the time-integrated spectrum of the burst (measured from T0-0.050 s to T0+0.004 s) by a power law with exponential cutoff model: dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E*(2+alpha)/Ep), yields alpha = 0.77(-0.62,+1.32) and Ep = 413(-74,+88) keV. All the quoted errors are estimated at the 68% confidence level. All the presented results are preliminary. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 31600 SUBJECT: GRB 220211A: MASTER optical observations of ZTF22aaajecp/AT2022cmc DATE: 22/02/16 22:39:20 GMT FROM: Vladimir Lipunov at Moscow State U/Krylov Obs V.

Minaev (IKI), A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of GRB IKI FuN: We analysed GRB 220211A (The Fermi GBM team, GCN 31570; Tohuvavohu et al., GCN 31582; Ridnaia et al., GCN 31584; Svinkin et al., GCN 31599) using publicly available data of GBM/Fermi. We estimate the duration in 7 - 850 keV energy band T_90 = 0.11 +/- 0.02 s. We performed spectral analysis in a time interval of (-0.05, 0.05) s, the best fit is obtained for CPL model with following parameters: E_p = 924 (-210, +317) keV, alpha = -0.50 +/- 0.25. The fluence of F = (5.8 +/- 0.5)E-7 erg/cm**2 is obtained in 10 - 1000 keV energy band. Using T_90,i - EH diagram [1,2] we classify the burst as type I (short) and find the minimal possible redshift value of z = 0.13 and the most probable value of the redshift z = 0.53. The T_90,i - EH diagram can be found in http://grb.rssi.ru/GRB220211A/GRB220211A_EHD.png The burst could also be classified as SGR Giant flare, placed at distance of D_L = 8.7 Mpc.
