We observed the field of Swift/BAT-GUANO localization (Tohuvavohu et
al., GCN 31572) of GRB 220210A (Fermi GBM team, GCN 31568) with
AZT-33IK telescope of Mondy observatory, AS-32 telescope of Abastumani
observatory, and Zeiss-2000 telescope in R-filter. Within localization
area (Tohuvavohu et al., GCN 31572) we do not detect evident candidate
in comparison with SDSS DR12 catalogue. The object reported by BOOTES
team (Carrasco-Garcia et al., GCN 31573) is clearly visible in all of
our observations and do not show significant variability with R= 20.17
+/- 0.14 (0.54116 d), R= 20.05 +/- 0.13 (0.72701 d), and R=20.14 +/-
0.13 (0.77438 d). This highly reddened object visible in DDS-2 Infrared
Survey (Carrasco-Garcia et al., GCN 31574) is also presented in SDSS
DR12 as a star-like very red object with r=21.187.
Preliminary photometry of the field is following

GRB 220210A (trigger ID: HEB220210997) in a routine search of the data,
which also triggered Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN #31568),
Swift/BAT (D'Ai A. et al., GCN #31572)
The Insight-HXMT/HE light curve mainly consists of single
pulse with a duration (T90) of 35.17 s measured from T0+2.60 s.
The 1-ms peak rate, measured from T0-0.064 s, is 1992 cnts/sec.
The total counts from this burst is 1726 counts.

All measurements above are made with the CsI detectors operating in the
regular mode with the energy range of about 80-800 keV (deposited energy).
Only gamma-rays with energy greater than about 200 keV can penetrate
the spacecraft and leave signals in the CsI detectors installed inside
of the telescope.
Insight-HXMT is the first Chinese space X-ray telescope, which was
funded jointly by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and
the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

Following the detection of GRB 220210A by Fermi (Fermi Team, GCNC 31568), Swift (Tohuvavohu et al. GCNC 31572) and AGILE (Ursi et al. GCNC 31575), we triggered the 1.5m OSN telescope in Granada (Spain) starting on Feb 11 at 19:30 UT (i.e. ~19.6 h post burst). Five images covering the Swift/BAT-GUANO error region were taken in the I-band at high airmass. No optical afterglow is detected in the error box down to I=20.8 in the combined (5x300s) image, in agreement with the non-detections reported by Lipunov et al. (GCNC 31569) and Carrasco-Garcia et al. (GCNC 31574).

report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team:
"At 23:56:38.37 UT on 10 February 2022, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 220210A (trigger 666230203 / 220210998),
which was also detected by the Swift/BAT-GUANO (Tohuvavohu et al. 2022, GCN 31572),
Fermi-LAT (Longo et al. 2022, GCN 31576), and AGILE (Ursi et al. 2022, GCN 31575).
The Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization (GCN 31568) is consistent with the Swift position.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight at the GBM trigger time is 16 degrees.
The GBM light curve shows a main peak followed by fainter peaks
with a duration (T90) of about 43 s (10-1000 keV).
The time-averaged spectrum from T0-0.4 s to T0+2.7 s is
best fit by a power-law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff.
The power law index is -0.95 +/- 0.07 and the cutoff energy,
parameterized as Epeak, is 3530 +/- 986 keV.
The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is
(4.9 +/- 0.3)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured
starting from T0-0.192 s in the 10-1000 keV band
is 4.1 +/- 0.2 ph/s/cm^2.
The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary;
final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog:

On February 10th, 2022, Fermi-LAT detected high-energy emission from GRB 220210A, which was also detected by Fermi-GBM (GCN 31568) Swift/BAT-GUANO (GCN 31572) and AGILE (GCN 31575). The best LAT on-ground location is found to be
RA, Dec = 347.4, 61.1 (degrees, J2000)
with an error radius of 1.5 deg (90% containment, statistical error only).
This was 15 deg from the LAT boresight at the time of the GBM trigger:
T0 = 23:56:38 UT.
The data from the Fermi-LAT show a significant increase in the event rate after the GBM trigger that is temporally correlated with the GBM emission with high significance. The GRB has a very soft estimated photon index (above 50 MeV) of -3.3 +/- 0.5 in the time interval 0-30 s after the GBM trigger. The corresponding estimated photon flux above 50 MeV is 3.8 +/- 1.4 E-5 ph/cm2/s. The highest-energy photon is a 190 MeV event which is observed 1 second after the GBM trigger.
The Fermi-LAT point of contact for this burst is Niccolo' di Lalla (niccolo.dilalla@stanford.edu)
The Fermi-LAT is a pair conversion telescope designed to cover the energy band from 20 MeV to greater than 300 GeV. It is the product of an international collaboration between NASA and DOE in the U.S. and many scientific institutions across France, Italy, Japan and Sweden.

23:56:38.40 +/- 0.01 s (UTC), reported by Fermi GBM (GCN #31568) and Swift
BAT (GCN #31572).
The burst is clearly visible in the AGILE scientific ratemeters of the
MiniCALorimeter (MCAL; 0.4-100 MeV) and AntiCoincidence (AC; 50-200 keV)
detectors. The event lasted about 1.9 s (in the 0.4-100 MeV energy range)
and it released a total number of 2110 counts in the MCAL detector (above a
background rate of 1230 Hz), and 3910 counts in the AC detector (above a
background rate of 3330 Hz). The AGILE ratemeters light curves can be found
at http://www.agilescienceapp.it/notices/GRB220210A_AGILE_RM.png .
The event also triggered a high time resolution MCAL data acquisition,
which released 1440 counts in the detector, above a background rate of 505
Hz. The time-integrated spectrum of the burst, from T0-0.19 s to T0+1.73 s,
can be fitted in the energy range 0.4-5 MeV with a power-law with ph.ind. =
-1.81 (-0.19,+0.21), resulting in a reduced chi-squared of 1.18 (36 d.o.f.)
and a fluence of 3.40e-06 erg/cm^2 (90% confidence level), in the same
energy range. The MCAL light curve can be found at

The optical afterglow candidate reported in GCNC 31573 (Carrasco-Garcia et al.) is ruled out as it is detected in DDS-2 Infrared Survey and therefore is a highly reddened object unrelated to the GRB.

its variability. Further multicolour observations are ongoing.

Aaron Tohuvavohu (U Toronto), James DeLaunay (UAlabama), Gayathri
Raman (PSU), Jamie A. Kennea (PSU), report:
Swift/BAT did not localize GRB 220210A onboard (T0: 2022-02-10T23:56:38
UTC, Fermi/GBM GCN 31568, CALET trig 1328572556).
The Fermi and CALET notices, 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, 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 GRB is clearly detected in the BAT data, with a duration of ~15 seconds.
A location for the burst is found with conventional BAT imaging, with SNR 11.4.
While the derived location is precise to ~2 arcminute with respect to
the spacecraft pointing, the conversion to celestial coordinates is
complicated by the current operational mode of Swift (GCN 31500,
31547).
The BAT position is
RA, Dec = 345.778, +61.826 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 23h 03m 6.9s
Dec(J2000) = +61d 49��� 33.2���
with an estimated uncertainty of 2 arcmin with respect to the
spacecraft pointing.
The uncertainty in the Swift attitude in the current mode is believed
to be ~1-2 degrees (M. Ajello et al, 2008 ApJ 689, 666).
The position is consistent with the Fermi/GBM localization (GCN 31568).
NITRATES results are not yet available, and will be reported in a
future circular.
There will be no XRT/UVOT followup (GCN 31547).
We encourage followup from other instruments.
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.
