image paragraph message for exposure 3 of trigger 878504


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 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 150 seconds with the White filter
starting 859 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 19.6 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 mag. No
correction has been made for the expected extinction corresponding to E(B-V) of
0.02.

UVOT exposure began at MET 567208611.80462 or about 2018:356:21:56:46 UT

Found 797 stars in largest star catalog for srclist region. The stars will
eliminate afterglows from about 7% of the srclist region. Found 190 sources in
srclist catalog. WARNING -- srclist catalog buffer filled. Found 76 srclist
source(s) without IDs. There are 0 good candidate(s) in the srclist catalog.
Good candidates must be brighter than 18.66 mag.

Found 5 source(s) in Genie image catalog. Found 0 Genie image source(s) without
IDs. There are 0 good candidate(s) in the Genie image catalog. Good candidates
must be brighter than 19.85 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 98659.7 counts in the large background region of 6264.0 pixels or a rate
of 15.750 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 19.85 mag. for a
4-arcsec aperture. The number of srclist sources filled the available
telemetry. The weakest source detected was 19.29 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.)
