TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 45363 SUBJECT: GRB 260810A: AstroSat CZTI detection of a long burst DATE: 26/08/12 14:03:40 GMT FROM: Anuraag Arya at IIT Bombay <aryaanuraag910@gmail.com> A.

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 GRB 260810A. 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 2026-08-10 19:09:52.63 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 762 (+50, -55) counts/s above the background in the combined data of three quadrants (out of four), with a total of 3869 (+166, -185) counts. The local mean background count rate was 263 (+3, -3) counts/s. We measure a T90 of 13 (+1 , -2) s from the cumulative CZT light curve. 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 2026-08-10 19:09:44.03 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 1664 (+74, -88) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all quadrants, with a total of 7362 (+234, -330) counts. The local mean background count rate was 780 (+5, -4) counts/s. We measure a T90 of 12 (+1, -1) s from the cumulative Veto light curve.
