Misra (ARIES) report:
We observed GRB 211024A which was triggered by Fermi GBM (Fermi GBM Team,
GCN 30962), and further, follow up observations were carried out by
Swift/BAT-GUANO (A. Tohuvavohu et al., GCN 31006)), 0.7m GROWTH-India
Telescope (GIT, Kumar et al,. (GCN 31014)), using 1.3m Devasthal Fast
Optical Telescope (DFOT) located at Devasthal observatory of Aryabhatta
Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES), India. Our
observation was carried out in two epochs. The first epoch observation was
started on 2021-10-26 at 16:22:24, i.e., ~2.62 DAYS post-Fermi trigger
whereas the second epoch observation was started on 2021-10-27 at 17:43:00,
i.e., ~3.68 days the Fermi trigger. Multiple frames in the R filter were
taken in both epochs.
In the first epoch, we started observing the location mentioned in
Swift/BAT-GUANO A. Tohuvavohu et al., (GCN 31006). But we found no
uncatalogued source within the error circle of ~ 6 arcmin up to 22.73 mag.
In the second epoch, we continued our observation for the 4th X-ray source
given by Swift-XRT ToO observations (M. Perri et al. GCN 31013) which were
assumed to be the afterglow of Fermi GBM GRB 211024A (GCN 30962), A.
Tohuvavohu et al., (GCN #31006), with 0.7m GROWTH-India Telescope (GIT,
Kumar, et al,. (GCN 31014)). We detected one source at R.A.= 1:52:46.98 ,
DEC.= -7:00:27.30 which is coincident with an X-ray source (#4) by
Swift-XRT ToO observations (M. Perri et al. GCN 31013. However, the source
is not variable during our observation period. Hence this is not the optical
counterpart of GRB 211024A. We quote an upper limit of 22.54 mag.
These magnitudes are not corrected for the Galactic extinction in the
direction of the burst. The standard stars from the USNO-B1.0 catalog was
used to get the calibrated magnitude.

We continued the observation of X-ray source (#4) by Swift-XRT ToO
observations (M. Perri et al. GCN # 31013), a candidate for the afterglow
of Fermi GBM GRB 211024A (GCN 30962), A. Tohuvavohu et al., (GCN #31006),
with 0.7m GROWTH-India Telescope (GIT). We obtained multiple exposures of
300 sec each in the g', r' and i' filters. The photometric results follow
as:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
JD (Start) | T_start-T0(days) | Filter | Magnitude (AB) |
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2459515.167376 | 3.60 | g' | 20.25 +/- 0.06
2459515.136124 | 3.57 | i' | 19.68 +/- 0.057
2459515.146851 | 3.58 | r' | 19.85 +/- 0.034
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Comparing magnitude in r' filter with our previous photometry reported in
H. Kumar et al., (GCN #31014), we conclude that the source is not evolving
and is not an afterglow of the GRB 211024A.
We did not detect sources #3,#5,#6 of Swift-XRT ToO observations (M. Perri
et al. GCN # 31013) up to the following upper limits:-
-------------------------------------------------------------------
JD (Start) | T_start-T0(days) | Filter | upper limit |

We observed GRB 211024A detected by Fermi GBM (GCN 30962), localisation
further refined by Swift/BAT-GUANO
A. Tohuvavohu et al., (GCN #31006), with 0.7m GROWTH-India Telescope (GIT).
We obtained 2 exposures of 300 sec each in the r' filter, separated by ~15
min. We detected a potential candidate in our subtracted image at R.A.=
1:52:46.98 , DEC.= -7:00:27.30. This is coincident with an X-ray source
(#4) by Swift-XRT ToO observations (M. Perri et al. GCN # 31013). The

-------------------------------------------------------------------
There was an underlying source at the position of the target in the raw
image which was subtracted using reference images from PanSTARRS. The
source magnitude is 17.86 mag in the r band with phot_z = 0.2108 +/- 0.02
(SDSS Release 12: Alam+, 2015). This may be the host galaxy of the GRB.
There is no minor planet at the location of the candidate in MPC. The gap
between exposures was not sufficient to measure any decay. Further
observations are planned. Follow-up observations for this source are
strongly encouraged.
The magnitudes are calibrated against PanSTARRS (Flewelling et al., 2018)
and not corrected for Galactic extinction.

report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team:
"At 01:34:11.40 UT on 24 October 2021, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
(GBM)
triggered and located GRB 211024A (trigger 656732056 / 211024065)
which was also detected by the Swift/BAT-GUANO (Tohuvavohu et al. 2021, GCN
31006).
The GBM on-ground location is consistent with the Swift/BAT-GUANO position.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight at the GBM trigger time is 119
degrees.
The GBM light curve consists of a single emission episode
with a duration (T90) of about 0.06 s (50-300 keV).
The time-averaged spectrum from T0-0.128 s to T0+0.128 s
is best fit by a power law function with an exponential
high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -0.23 +/- 0.39 and
the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 145 +/- 27 keV.
The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is
(1.95 +/- 0.28)E-07 erg/cm^2. The 64-ms peak photon flux measured
starting from T0 s in the 10-1000 keV band
is 10.4 +/- 1.4 ph/s/cm^2.
The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary;
final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog:

Swift has initiated a ToO observation of the Swift/BAT GRB 211024A.
Automated analysis of the XRT data will be presented online at

Any uncatalogued X-ray sources detected in this analysis will be

not necessarily related to the Swift/BAT event. Any X-ray source
considered to be a probable afterglow candidate will be reported via a
GCN Circular after manual consideration.
Details of the XRT automated analysis methods are detailed in Evans et

Aaron Tohuvavohu (U Toronto), James DeLaunay (UAlabama), Gayathri
Raman (PSU), Jamie A. Kennea (PSU), report:
Swift/BAT did not trigger on GRB 211024A (T0: 2021-10-24T01:34:11.4
UTC, Fermi/GBM trigger # 656732056, GCN 30962), also detected by
GECAM-B (GCN 30974).
The Fermi/GBM notice, distributed in near real-time, triggered the
Swift Mission Operations Center operated Gamma-ray Urgent Archiver for
Novel Opportunities (GUANO; Tohuvavohu et al. 2020, ApJ, 900, 1).
Upon trigger by this notice, GUANO sent a command to the Swift Burst
Alert Telescope (BAT) to save 200 seconds of BAT event-mode data from
[-50,+150] seconds around the time of the burst. All the requested
event mode data was delivered to the ground.
The BAT likelihood search, NITRATES (DeLaunay + Tohuvavohu, in prep),
confidently detects the burst with a duration of ~0.1 seconds and
sqrt(TS) of 10.4.
A candidate localization is found with DeltaLLHOut of 13 and an
ambiguous DeltaLLHPeak of 2.5. For this reason we can confidently
claim detection, and some preference for an in-FOV origin, but the
best fit arcmin localization is not strongly preferred over other
positions.
Conventional imaging does not find a location for this burst.
The best BAT position is
RA, Dec = 28.053 -6.973 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 1h 52m 12.61s
Dec(J2000) = -6d 58��� 23���
with an estimated uncertainty of 6 arcmin.
This position is consistent with the Fermi/GBM localization.
XRT and UVOT follow-up has been requested.
Results of follow-up observations will be reported in future circulars.
GUANO is a fully autonomous, extremely low latency, spacecraft
commanding pipeline designed for targeted recovery of BAT event mode
data around the times of compelling astrophysical events to enable
more sensitive GRB searches.

During the commissioning phase, GECAM-B was triggered ground by a short

which was also detected by Fermi/GBM (GCN 30962).
According to the GECAM-B light curves in about 16-3500 keV, this
burst mainly consists of a broad pulse with a duration of about 0.1 s.
The GECAM light curve could be found here:
http://twiki.ihep.ac.cn/pub/GECAM/GRBList/tn211024_013411_gb.png
GECAM-B localized this burst to the following position (J2000):
Ra: 25.7 deg
Dec: 1.05 deg
Err: 28.73 deg (1-sigma, statistical only)
The current systematic error of location is estimated to be several degrees
which could be minimized by the ongoing calibration.
This location is consistent with Fermi/GBM position within the error.
Please note that all GECAM results here are preliminary. The final analysis
will be published in journal papers or GECAM online catalog.

The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB
At 01:34:11 UT on 24 Oct 2021, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 211024A (trigger 656732056.398738 / 211024065).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 358.1, Dec = 3.1 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 23h 52m, 3d 06'), with a statistical uncertainty of 16.9 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 88.0 degrees.
