Multi-wavelength Observations

Timeline

T0+	Instrument	Outcome	Outcome specific value (flux/UL/...)	Comment	Link
0-300 s after the GBM trigger	Fermi-LAT	Detection	(1.0 ± 0.3) E-05 ph/cm2/s	The highest-energy photon is a 1.7 GeV	https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/33780
45.5 - 57.3 ks	Swift-XRT	No aparent detection	Nine uncatalogued X-ray sources have been detected	However none of them is above the RASS limit or shows definitive signs of fading.	https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/33789
2 hours	Zwicky Transient Facility	No aparent detection	Two sources were found within the 95% localization region	These are likely unrelated as they fall outside the LAT localization	https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/33784
