TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 42384 SUBJECT: GRB 251022A: Fermi-LAT detection DATE: 25/10/23 07:29:47 GMT FROM: Elisabetta Bissaldi at Politecnico and INFN Bari <elisabetta.bissaldi@ba.infn.it> N. Di Lalla (Stanford Univ.), D. Kocevski (NASA/MSFC), N. Omodei (Stanford Univ.), S. Cutini (INFN Perugia) A. Holzmann Airasca (UniTrento and INFN Bari), F. Longo (University and INFN, Trieste) and E. Bissaldi (Politecnico and INFN Bari) report on behalf of the Fermi-LAT Collaboration: On October 22, 2025, Fermi-LAT detected high-energy emission from GRB 251022A, which was also detected by Fermi-GBM (trigger 782865260 / 251022940, GCN 42380). The best LAT on-ground location is found to be: RA, Dec = 65.38, -19.31 (J2000) with an error radius of 0.32 deg (90 % containment, statistical error only). This was 36 deg from the LAT boresight at the time of the GBM trigger (T0 = 22:34:15.26 UT). The data from the Fermi-LAT shows a significant increase in the event rate that is spatially and temporally correlated with the GBM emission with high significance. The photon flux above 100 MeV in the time interval 0 - 300 s after the GBM trigger is (5.4 ± 2.0) E-6 ph/cm2/s. The estimated photon index above 100 MeV is -2.5 ± 0.5. The highest-energy photon is a 2 GeV event which is observed ~ 71 seconds after the GBM trigger. A Swift ToO has been approved for this burst. The Fermi-LAT point of contact for this burst is Sara Cutini (sara.cutini@pg.infn.it). The Fermi-LAT is a pair conversion telescope designed to cover the energy band from 20 MeV to greater than 300 GeV. It is the product of an international collaboration between NASA and DOE in the U.S. and many scientific institutions across France, Italy, Japan and Sweden.
