TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44487 SUBJECT: GRB 260504B: AstroSat CZTI detection DATE: 26/05/07 14:19:14 GMT FROM: Anuraag Arya at IIT Bombay <aryaanuraag910@gmail.com> A. Goyal (IITB), 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 260504B which is also detected by SVOM/GRM (Saccardi et al., GCN Circ. 44454), GECAM-B (Wang et al., GCN Circ. 44473), and Konus-Wind (Frederiks et. al., GCN Circ. 44474). The source was clearly detected in the CZT detectors in the 20-200 keV energy range. The light curve peaks at 2026-05-04 09:31:16.450 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 1150 (+201, -203) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all four quadrants, with a total of 162 (+33, -36) counts. The local mean background count rate was 319 (+9, -11) counts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 0.22 (+0.11, -0.07) s. 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.
