TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44871 SUBJECT: GRB 260607B: AstroSat CZTI detection DATE: 26/06/08 13:00:00 GMT FROM: Anuraag Arya at IIT Bombay <aryaanuraag910@gmail.com> Harsha K. H. (IUCAA), 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 260607B which was also detected by Fermi GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN Circ. 44859), Fermi LAT (Airasca et. al. , GCN Circ. 44860). 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 2026-06-07 13:19:41.91 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 508 (+45, -30) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all quadrants, with a total of 8523 (+313, -323) counts. The local mean background count rate was 280 (+2, -2) counts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 45.8 (+0.2, -0.6) 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 2026-06-07 13:19:41.36 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 4613 (+124, -120) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all quadrants, with a total of 79352 (+766, -730) counts. The local mean background count rate was 1278 (+4, -5) counts/s. We measure a T90 of 45.8 (+0.1, -0.1) 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.
