Beardmore (U. Leicester), S. Campana (INAF-OAB), A. Melandri
(INAF-OAR), T. Sbarrato (INAF-OAB), D.N. Burrows (PSU) and P.A. Evans
(U. Leicester) reports on behalf of the Swift-XRT team:

Swift-XRT has performed follow-up observations of the IPN-detected
burst GRB 250804B in a series of observations tiled on the sky.  The
total exposure time is	3.3 ks, distributed over 3 tiles; the maximum
exposure at a single sky location in the tiling was 2.2 ks. The data
were collected between T0+79.5 ks and T0+92.2 ks, and are entirely in
Photon Counting (PC) mode. 

Three uncatalogued X-ray sources have been detected, however none of
them is above the RASS limit or shows definitive signs of fading.
Therefore, at the present time we cannot identify which, if any, is the
afterglow. Details of these sources are given below:

Source 5:
  RA (J2000.0):  40.9795  =  02:43:55.09
  Dec (J2000.0): -46.5917  =  -46:35:30.2
  Error: 6.8 arcsec (radius, 90% conf.)
  Count-rate: (6.1 [+3.1, -2.3])e-3 ct s^-1   
  Distance: 1117 arcsec from IPN position.
  Flux: (1.60 [+0.81, -0.62])e-13 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (observed, 0.3-10 keV)

Source 6:
  RA (J2000.0):  40.8694  =  02:43:28.64
  Dec (J2000.0): -46.4818  =  -46:28:54.4
  Error: 7.1 arcsec (radius, 90% conf.)
  Count-rate: (9.6 [+4.0, -3.2])e-3 ct s^-1   
  Distance: 1217 arcsec from IPN position.
  Flux: (1.78 [+0.75, -0.59])e-13 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (observed, 0.3-10 keV)

Source 7:
  RA (J2000.0):  40.5489  =  02:42:11.74
  Dec (J2000.0): -46.5143  =  -46:30:51.5
  Error: 8.8 arcsec (radius, 90% conf.)
  Count-rate: (8.8 [+4.8, -3.6])e-3 ct s^-1   
  Distance: 924 arcsec from IPN position.
  Flux: (3.0 [+1.6, -1.2])e-13 erg cm^-2 s^-1 (observed, 0.3-10 keV)

Four catalogued sources were also detected.

The results of the XRT-team automatic analysis of the tiled XRT
observations, including a position-specific upper limit calculator, are
available at https://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_products/TILED_GRB00138.
