TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 39768 SUBJECT: GRB 250317C: GECAM-B detection DATE: 25/03/18 11:31:10 GMT FROM: Yue Wang m18509381757@163.com
Yue Wang, Shao-Lin Xiong, Chen-Wei Wang report on behalf of the GECAM team:
GECAM-B was triggered both in-flight and on-ground by a long burst, GRB 250317C, at 2025-03-17T17:31:21.700 UTC (T0).
According to the event-by-event data, the GECAM-B light curve shows a main pulse with a with a T90 of 23.0 +3.0/-4.0 s in the 40-6000 keV band.
The GECAM-B light curve could be found here: https://www.bursthub.cn//admin/static/gecamgrb250317C.png
Using the automatic on-ground localization pipeline, GECAM-B localized this burst to the following position (J2000): Ra: 320.42 deg Dec: -16.07 deg Err: 8.59 deg (1-sigma, statistical only)
We note that these results are preliminary. Refined analysis will be reported later.
Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor(GECAM) mission originally consists of two microsatellites (GECAM-A and GECAM-B) launched in Dec. 2020. As the third member of GECAM constellation, GECAM-C was launched onboard SATech-01 experimental satellite in July 2022. GECAM mission is funded by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
