TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 42715 SUBJECT: GRB 251116D: AstroSat CZTI detection DATE: 25/11/17 10:04:03 GMT FROM: Anuraag Arya at IIT Bombay <aryaanuraag910@gmail.com> Harsha K. H. (IUCAA), S.

Rao (IUCAA/TIFR), and S. Vadawale (PRL) report on behalf of the AstroSat CZTI collaboration: Analysis of AstroSat CZTI data with the CIFT framework (Sharma et al., 2021, JApA, 42, 73) showed the detection of a long GRB 251116D which was also detected by Konus Wind (IPN Notices). The source was clearly detected in the CZT detectors in the 20-200 keV energy range. The light curve showed multiple peaks of emission with the strongest peak at 2025-11-16 19:22:37.50 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 472 (+45, -48) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all quadrants, with a total of 2912 (+187, -203) counts. The local mean background count rate was 283 (+3, -3) counts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 12.4 (+1.5, -0.8) s. The source was also clearly detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector in the 100-500 keV energy range. The light curve showed multiple peaks of emission with the strongest peak at 2025-11-16 19:22:36.63 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 1074 (+80, -86) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all quadrants, with a total of 4561 (+353, -380) counts. The local mean background count rate was 1330 (+6, -7) counts/s. We measure a T90 of 12.0 (+1.0, -1.4) s from the cumulative Veto light curve. CZTI is built by a TIFR-led consortium of institutes across India, including VSSC, URSC, IUCAA, SAC, and PRL. The Indian Space Research Organisation funded, managed, and facilitated the project.
