TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 35589 SUBJECT: GRB 240119A: AstroSat CZTI detection of a short burst DATE: 24/01/21 06:57:24 GMT FROM: Gaurav Waratkar at IIT Bombay <gauravwaratkar@iitb.ac.in> J. Joshi (IUCAA), G. Waratkar (IITB), A. Vibhute (IUCAA), V. Bhalerao (IITB), D. Bhattacharya (Ashoka University/IUCAA), A. R. 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 a short-duration GRB 240119A which was also detected by Fermi-GBM (Fermi GBM team, GCN Circ. 35583). The source was detected in the CZT detectors in the 20-200 keV energy range. The light curve peaks at 2024-01-19 17:29:07.67 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 1304 (+583, -314) counts/s above the background in the combined data of three quadrants (out of four), with a total of 53 (+17, -18) counts. The local mean background count rate was 250 (+25, -36) counts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 0.06 (+0.02, -0.03) s. The source was also faintly detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector in the 100-500 keV energy range but we cannot make quantitative inferences due to the intrinsic 1 s binning of Veto data. 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.
