image paragraph message for exposure 2 of trigger 1519536



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

In response to GRB261017 (Swift/BAT trigger 1519536) at 16:05:05 UT,

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

UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 250 seconds with the U filter starting
301 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 19.2 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 18.0 mag. No
correction has been made for extinction.

XRT position found for srclist. XRT position found for Genie image. BAT
position found.

UVOT exposure began at MET 813946245.7765 or about 2026:290:16:10:40 UT

Found 148 stars in largest star catalog for srclist region. The stars will
eliminate afterglows from about 4% of the srclist region. Found 12 sources in
srclist catalog. Found 0 srclist source(s) without IDs. There are 0 good
candidate(s) in the srclist catalog. Good candidates must be brighter than
18.12 mag.

Found 4 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 19.67 mag. Found 44 stars in largest star catalog for
Genie image region. The stars will eliminate afterglows from about 4% of the
Genie image region.

Genie image analysis:
Found 74060.2 counts in the large background region of 6204.0 pixels or a rate
of 11.937 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 18.90 mag. for a
4-arcsec aperture.
Found 2451.1 counts in the XRT position region of 199.0 pixels or a rate of
12.317 counts/pixel in a radius of 8.0 arcsec. The net count rate (using local
background region) at the XRT position is 0.353 +/- 0.213 (1-sigma) cps or
19.25 mag and a range from 18.74 to 20.25 mag. The 3-sigma UL at the XRT
position is 0.991 cps or 18.13 mag. The closest srclist source has ra= 139.8824
dec= 12.6410 mag=16.63 sep=75.08". The closest Genie source has ra= 139.9107
dec= 12.6449 mag=19.03 sep=36.09".

This paragraph is only useful if the XRT position is grossly wrong. There are 1
candidate(s) in the image data with mag < 19.11 inside the BAT error region,
but outside the XRT error region. The brightest such source is at RA=139.91072
(09:19:38.57), DEC=12.64488 (+12:38:41.6) (J2000). It has a mag of 19.03. It is
37.8" from the BAT position.

****THIS SOURCE IS OUTSIDE XRT ERROR CIRCLE--USE WITH CAUTION***
UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 250 seconds with the U filter starting
301 seconds after the BAT trigger. There is a candidate afterglow in the
rapidly available 2.7'x2.7' sub-image at
RA(J2000) = 09:19:38.57 = 139.91072
DEC(J2000) = +12:38:41.6 = 12.64488
with a 90%-confidence error radius of about 0.90 arc sec. The estimated
magnitude is 19.03 with a 1-sigma error of about 0.22. No correction has been
made for extinction.

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.)
