Swift has carried out 92 observations of the LVC error region for the
GW trigger S240422ed convolved with the 2MPZ catalogue (Bilicki et al.
2014, ApJS, 210, 9), using 76 fields from the 'BAYESTAR' GW
localisation map and 16 fields from the 'ligo-skymap-from-samples' GW
localisation map. As these are 3D skymaps, galaxy distances were taken
into account in selecting which ones to observe. The observations
currently span from 10 ks to 90 ks after the LVC trigger, and the XRT
has covered 10.1 deg^2 on the sky (corrected for overlaps). This covers
4.5% of the probability in the 'ligo-skymap-from-samples' (version
ligo-skymap-from-samples.fits.gz) skymap, and 19% after convolving with
the 2MPZ galaxy catalogue, as described by Evans et al. (2016, MNRAS,
462, 1591). Using the earlier 'BAYESTAR' (version BAYESTAR.fits.gz)
skymap our observations cover 5.3% of the probability (19% when
convolved). These pointings and associated metadata have been reported
to the Treasure Map (Wyatt et al., 2020, ApJ, 894, 127;
http://treasuremap.space/alerts?graceids=S240422ed).
3 rank 2 sources have been found. These are candidates to be the
counterpart to the GW trigger. Details of these sources are:
Source S240422ed_X61:
=====================
RA: 120.3245 ( = 08h 01m 17.88s) J2000
Dec: -28.1765 ( = -28d 10' 35.4") J2000
Error: 5.1 (arcsec, radius, 90% confidence).
Peak Rate: 8.3e-02 +/- 3.0e-02 ct s^-1 (0.3-10 keV)
Peak Flux: 3.5e-12 +/- 1.3e-12 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.3-10 keV)
Catalogued: No
RASS UL: 3.3e-02 ct s^-1 (converted to XRT; 0.3-10 keV)
so the source is not above the RASS 3-sigma
upper limit.
The source IS FADING at the 3.0-sigma level.
NOTE: this source is NOT within 200 kpc of a GWGC or 2MPZ galaxy
which is consistent (within 3-sigma) with the distance to the GW
object.
Source S240422ed_X101:
======================
RA: 122.3954 ( = 08h 09m 34.90s) J2000
Dec: -24.3272 ( = -24d 19' 37.9") J2000
Error: 6.6 (arcsec, radius, 90% confidence).
Peak Rate: 1.0e-01 +/- 3.1e-02 ct s^-1 (0.3-10 keV)
Peak Flux: 4.4e-12 +/- 1.3e-12 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.3-10 keV)
Catalogued: No
RASS UL: 2.6e-02 ct s^-1 (converted to XRT; 0.3-10 keV)
so the source is not above the RASS 3-sigma
upper limit.
The source IS FADING at the 3.5-sigma level.
NOTE: this source is NOT within 200 kpc of a GWGC or 2MPZ galaxy
which is consistent (within 3-sigma) with the distance to the GW
object.
Source S240422ed_X190:
======================
RA: 121.2770 ( = 08h 05m 06.48s) J2000
Dec: -26.1203 ( = -26d 07' 13.1") J2000
Error: 5.3 (arcsec, radius, 90% confidence).
Peak Rate: 2.0e+00 +/- 5.2e-01 ct s^-1 (0.3-10 keV)
Peak Flux: 8.4e-11 +/- 2.2e-11 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (0.3-10 keV)
Catalogued: No
RASS UL: 2.2e-02 ct s^-1 (converted to XRT; 0.3-10 keV)
so the source is not above the RASS 3-sigma
upper limit.
There is no evidence for fading.
NOTE: this source is NOT within 200 kpc of a GWGC or 2MPZ galaxy
which is consistent (within 3-sigma) with the distance to the GW
object.
NOTE: This source is in a very noisy XRT field and it may not
be real: we will request a follow-up observation.
In total, we have detected 232 X-ray sources. Each source is assigned a
rank of 1-4 which describes how likely it is to be related to the GW
trigger, with 1 being the most likely and 4 being the least likely. The
ranks are described at https://www.swift.ac.uk/ranks.php.
We have found:
* 0 sources of rank 1
* 3 sources of rank 2
* 221 sources of rank 3
* 8 sources of rank 4
RANK 3 sources
==============
These are uncatalogued X-ray sources, however they are not brighter
than previous upper limits, so do not stand out as likely counterparts
to the GW trigger.

These are catalogued X-ray sources, showing no signs of outburst
compared to previous observations, so they are not likely to be related
to the GW trigger.

For all flux conversions and comparisons with catalogues and upper
limits from other missions, we assumed a power-law spectrum with
NH=3x10^20 cm^-2, and photon index (Gamma)=1.7, unless otherwise
stated.
