TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40931 SUBJECT: Fermi GBM Analysis of GRB 250702B (formerly B,D,E); dissociation of C burst DATE: 25/07/04 03:47:31 GMT FROM: eliza.neights@gmail.com E. Neights (GWU, NASA GSFC), O.J. Roberts (USRA, NASA MSFC), E. Burns (LSU), P. Veres (UAH), E. Bissaldi (Politecnico and INFN Bari) report on behalf of the Fermi-GBM Team: On July 2, 2025, Fermi-GBM triggered four times on gamma-ray emission emanating from a similar localization of the sky (GCNs 40883, 40885, 40886, 40890, 40891), over an interval of 11.5 ks, believed likely to be from the same source. Konus-Wind observations (GCN 40914) provide further support that these triggers may be related to a similar origin, but with a combined duration of >15 ks. A combined GBM skymap was found to be spatially consistent with Swift-BAT GUANO detections of 250702D, C and E (GCN 40903). Emission from 250702E was found to be spatially and temporally coincident with Einstein Probe Transient, EP250702a (GCN 40906, 40917). While it is currently named with the phenomenological GRB convention, the physical origin is still uncertain. Upon further investigation, the pulse which caused the GBM trigger labeled 250702C was from an unrelated short GRB. That is, emission from the short burst and the ultra-long 250702B are contemporaneous, but arise from inconsistent locations. In light of this, spectral analysis was conducted for the three triggers of GRB 250702B, matched to their previous designations below. We observe photons in the BGO up to 1 MeV, with the majority of the photons occurring in the 50-300 keV range. The spectral analyses of these events are summarized below, which are fit about equally well with power law and Band function models: GRB Name | Trigger Time/T0 (UT) | Interval (s) | Power Law Index | Fluence (erg/cm2) 250702E | 16:21:33.07 | T0-6.1 - T0+147.5 | -1.38 +/- 0.01 | (2.74 +/- 0.05)E-05 250702B | 13:56:05.77 | T0-30.7 - T0+26.6 | -1.34 +/- 0.01 | (1.24 +/- 0.03)E-05 250702D | 13:09:02.03 | T0-95.2 - T0+12.3 | -1.29 +/- 0.02 | (1.04 +/- 0.05)E-05 GRB Name | Trigger Time/T0 (UT) | Interval (s) | Band Alpha | Band Beta | Band Peak Energy (keV) | Fluence (erg/cm2) 250702E | 16:21:33.07 | T0-6.1 - T0+147.5 | -0.81 +/- 0.05 | -5.1 +/- 22.7 | 610 +/- 60 | (3.4 +/- 0.1)E-05 250702B | 13:56:05.77 | T0-30.7 - T0+26.6 | -0.8 +/- 0.1 | -1.52 +/- 0.04 | 400 +/- 200 | (1.38 +/- 0.05)E-05 250702D | 13:09:02.03 | T0-95.2 - T0+12.3 | -0.2 +/- 0.3 | -1.7 +/- 0.1 | 400 +/- 100 | (1.48 +/- 0.09)E-05 View this GCN Circular online at https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/40931. --- To unsubscribe, open this link in a web browser: https://gcn.nasa.gov/unsubscribe/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6InZzbmV0LW...
