image paragraph message for exposure 1 of trigger 856977



WARNING -- because of the LARGE EXTINCTION, results should be used cautiously.
1 source(s) near the XRT position were rejected as afterglow candidate(s). See
notes for details.

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

In response to GRB180828 (Swift/BAT trigger 856977) at 18:57:34 UT,

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

UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 30 seconds with the White filter
starting 123 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 19.6 mag.
Results from the list of sources generated on-board are not available at this
time. No correction has been made for the large, but uncertain, extinction
expected.

Large extinction of 80.58 found for bat position. Unreliable extinction found
for xrt position. XRT position found for Genie image. BAT position found.

UVOT exposure began at MET 557175600.21904 or about 2018:240:18:59:55 UT
No information found about the number of stars in the star catalog for srclist
region.

Found 29 source(s) in Genie image catalog. 1 source(s) are within 10.0" of the
xrt position. 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
19.42 mag. Found 303 stars in largest star catalog for Genie image region. The
stars will eliminate afterglows from about 27% of the Genie image region.

Genie image analysis:
Found 21138.4 counts in the large background region of 5427.0 pixels or a rate
of 3.895 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 18.86 mag. for a
4-arcsec aperture.
Found 814.9 counts in the XRT position region of 200.0 pixels or a rate of
4.074 counts/pixel in a radius of 8.0 arcsec. The net count rate (using local
background region) at the XRT position is 1.073 +/- 1.031 (1-sigma) cps or
19.70 mag and a range from 18.97 to 23.22 mag. The 3-sigma UL at the XRT
position is 4.167 cps or 18.23 mag.
Found 1 Genie source(s) within 10.0" of the XRT position. The brightest such
source has ra= 268.7156 dec= -25.7988 mag=19.03 sep=8.66". The closest Genie
source has ra= 268.7156 dec= -25.7988 mag=19.03 sep=8.66".

Report rejected UVOT sources within 10 arcsec XRT position.
Such sources are usually NOT the afterglow.

****THIS SOURCE NEAR XRT POSITION WAS REJECTED--USE WITH CAUTION****
UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 30 seconds with the White filter
starting 123 seconds after the BAT trigger. There is a candidate afterglow in
the rapidly available 2.7'x2.7' sub-image at
RA(J2000) = 17:54:51.75 = 268.71561
DEC(J2000) = -25:47:55.7 = -25.79881
with a 90%-confidence error radius of about 0.81 arc sec. This position is 8.66
arc sec. from the center of the XRT error circle. The estimated magnitude is
19.03 with a 1-sigma error of about 0.22. No correction has been made for the
large, but uncertain, extinction expected.
