At 2021-08-22T09:18:18.00 UTC(denoted as T0), GECAM-B was triggered in-flight 
by a long bright burst, GRB 210822A, which is also observed by Swift/BAT (GCN #30677). 
The spectrum was calculated using the GECAM-B trigger data. 

The time-integrated spectrum (measured from T0 to T0+15) 
is best fit in the 20 keV - 5 MeV range 
by a power law with high energy exponential rolloff model:
dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E/beta)
with  alpha = -0.8595 +/- 0.029,
and beta = 394.9867 +/- 23.466 keV.

The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is
(7.54 +0.10/-0.19)E-05 erg/cm^2. 

Please note that all GECAM results here are preliminary. The final analysis
will be published in journal papers or GECAM online catalog.

Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor
(GECAM) mission consists of two small satellites (GECAM-A and GECAM-B) in
Low Earth Orbit (600 km, 29 deg), launched on Dec 10, 2020 (Beijing Time),
which was funded by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
