TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 37079 SUBJECT: Konus-Wind detection of GRB 240802A (EP240802a) DATE: 24/08/06 17:04:23 GMT FROM: Dmitry Frederiks at Ioffe Institute <fred@mail.ioffe.ru> D. Frederiks, A.Lysenko, A. Ridnaia, D. Svinkin, A. Tsvetkova, M. Ulanov, and T. Cline, on behalf of the Konus-Wind team, report: The long GRB 240802A (AstroSat CZTI detection: Waratkar et al., GCN 37018; SVOM/GRM observation: Wang et al., GCN 37022; IPN triangulation: Svinkin et al., GCN 37026; Kozyrev et al., GCN 37078), associated with the fast X-ray transient EP240802a (Wang et al., GCN 37019; Aryan et al., GCN 37021; Svinkin et al., GCN 37026; Kozyrev et al., GCN 37078), triggered Konus-Wind (KW) at T0=38048.482 s UT (10:34:08.482). The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked emission pulse, which starts at ~T0-13 s and has the total duration of ~47 s. Two main peaks in the light curve are located around ~T0 and ~T0+29 s, respectively. The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB240802_T38048/ As observed by Konus-Wind, the burst had the total fluence of 1.63(-0.14,+0.15)x10^-5 erg/cm^2 and a 2.944-s peak energy flux, measured from T0+0.032 s, of 8.21(-2.63,+3.09)x10^-6 erg/cm^2/s (both in the 20 keV - 10 MeV energy range). Due to telemetry errors in the KW triggered-mode spectra, the spectral analysis was performed using the 3-channel waiting-mode count rates. Modeling the time-integrated spectrum (measured from T0-13.161 s to T0+33.943 s) by a power law with exponential cutoff (CPL) function dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E*(2+alpha)/Ep) yields alpha = -1.38(-0.11, + 0.12) and Ep = 226(-36,+51) keV. A CPL fit to the spectrum near the peak count rate (measured from T0-1.385 s to T0+1.559 s) results in alpha = -1.02(-0.15,+0.17) and Ep = 273(-42,+55) keV. All the quoted errors are estimated at the 68% confidence level. All the presented results are preliminary.
