image paragraph message for exposure 2 of trigger 878504


IMAGE PROBLEM: partial overlap

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

In response to GRB181222 (Swift/BAT trigger 878504) at 21:42:09 UT,

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

UVOT took a finding chart exposure of 250 seconds with the U filter starting
306 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
0.02.

UVOT exposure began at MET 567208058.21692 or about 2018:356:21:47:33 UT

Found 727 stars in largest star catalog for srclist region. The stars will
eliminate afterglows from about 7% of the srclist region. Found 176 sources in
srclist catalog. Found 79 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 5 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 20.02 mag. Found 47 stars in largest star catalog for
Genie image region. The stars will eliminate afterglows from about 5% of the
Genie image region.

Genie image analysis:
Found 14011.3 counts in the large background region of 6201.0 pixels or a rate
of 2.260 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 20.06 mag. for a
4-arcsec aperture.

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.)
