FROM:    jgolomb@caltech.edu

We have conducted further analysis of the LIGO Hanford Observatory (H1) and LIGO Livingston Observatory (L1) data around the time of the compact binary merger (CBC) candidate S230630bq (GCN Circular 34127). Parameter estimation has been performed using Bilby [1] and a new sky map, Bilby.offline0.multiorder.fits,0, distributed via GCN Notice, is available for retrieval from the GraceDB event page:

https://gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S230630bq

For the Bilby.offline0.multiorder.fits,0 sky map, the 90% credible region is 1215 deg2. Marginalized over the whole sky, the a posteriori luminosity distance estimate is 999 +/- 286 Mpc (a posteriori mean +/- standard deviation).
