Vertat (FEL ZCU) -- the VZLUSAT-2/GRB payload collaboration. The long-duration GRB 240624B (Fermi/GBM detection: GCN 36749; GRBAlpha detection: GCN 36759; CALET/CGBM detection: GCN 36764; Konus/Wind detection trigger at 2024-06-24 19:19:51.634 UTC) was detected by the GRB detectors on board of the VZLUSAT-2 3U CubeSat (https://www.vzlusat2.cz/en/). The data acquisition was performed by the GRB detector units no. 0 and no. 1. The detection was confirmed at the peak time 2024-06-24 19:19:46 (19:19:44) UTC. The T90 duration is 6 s (5 s) and the significance during T90 reaches 5.3 sigma (12 sigma) for detector unit no. 0 (no. 1). The light curve obtained by VZLUSAT-2 is available here: https://vzlusat2.konkoly.hu/static/share/GRB240624B_GCN_VZLUSAT2.pdf All VZLUSAT-2 detections are listed at: https://monoceros.physics.muni.cz/hea/VZLUSAT-2/ The GRB detectors on VZLUSAT-2 are a demonstration payload for a future CubeSat constellation (Werner et al. Proc. SPIE 2018). Two GRB modules of VZLUSAT-2 are placed in a perpendicular manner and each consists of a 75 x 75 x 5 mm3 CsI scintillator read out by a SiPM array, covering the energy range from ~30 keV to ~1000 keV. VZLUSAT-2 was launched on 2022 January 13 from Cape Canaveral.
