image paragraph message for exposure 1 of trigger 1244778


THIS MESSAGE IS *NOT* READY FOR DISTRIBUTION.
MORE ANALYSIS IS REQUIRED TO DETERMINE WHETHER THERE IS AN AFTERGLOW CANDIDATE.
IMAGE PROBLEM: partial overlap
SRCLIST PROBLEM: srclist filled telemetry buffer
See notes for more details.

------ Start for Possible Stand-alone Circular ----

In response to GRB240725 (Swift/BAT trigger 1244778) at 02:37:36 UT,

---- UVOT paragraph for Joint or Stand-alone Circular ----

UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 250 seconds with the U filter starting
303 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 25% of the
BAT error circle. The typical 3-sigma upper limit has been about 19.2 mag. The
8'x8' region for the list of sources generated on-board covers 100% of the BAT
error circle. The list of sources is typically complete to about 18.0 mag. No
correction has been made for the expected extinction corresponding to E(B-V) of
0.068.

UVOT exposure began at MET 743568194.20024 or about 2024:207:02:43:09 UT

Found 1322 stars in largest star catalog for srclist region. The stars will
eliminate afterglows from about 11% of the srclist region. Found 190 sources in
srclist catalog. WARNING -- srclist catalog buffer filled. Found 59 srclist
source(s) without IDs. There are 0 good candidate(s) in the srclist catalog.
Good candidates must be brighter than 17.56 mag.

Found 11 source(s) in Genie image catalog. Found 1 Genie image source(s)
without IDs. There are 0 good candidate(s) in the Genie image catalog. Good
candidates must be brighter than 20.10 mag. Found 110 stars in largest star
catalog for Genie image region. The stars will eliminate afterglows from about
12% of the Genie image region.

Genie image analysis:
Found 11747.4 counts in the large background region of 6053.0 pixels or a rate
of 1.941 counts/pixel in a radius of 45.0 arcsec. Based on this background, the
typical 5-sigma UL at a random point in the Genie image is 19.91 mag. for a
4-arcsec aperture. The number of srclist sources filled the available
telemetry. The weakest source detected was 19.17 mag.

All AG candidates sorted by magnitude for the current finding chart.
(U/V/White SRCLIST mags < 17.5/17.5/18.5 are reliable. Mag > 18.5/18.5/19.5 are
not. Others are uncertain.)
(U/V/White Genie image mags < 18.0/18.0/19.0 are reliable. Mag > 19.0/19.0/20.0
are not. Others are uncertain.)
