TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40142 SUBJECT: GRB 250412A: AstroSat CZTI detection DATE: 25/04/14 06:02:43 GMT FROM: Gaurav Waratkar at IIT Bombay <gauravwaratkar@iitb.ac.in> M. Tembhurnikar (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 long-duration GRB 250412A which was also detected by Fermi GBM (Trigger Num. 766173972). The source was clearly detected in the CZT detectors in the 20-200 keV energy range. The light curve peaks at 2025-04-12 18:06:07.50 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 109 (+29, -26) counts/s above the background in the combined data of three quadrants (out of four), with a total of 411 (+108, -138) counts. The local mean background count rate was 204 (+3, -4) counts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 6.9 (+2.1, -2.9) s. The source was also faintly detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector in the 100-500 keV energy range. The light curve peaks at 2025-04-12 18:06:08 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 219 (+64, -53) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all quadrants, with a total of 768 (+244, -251) counts. The local mean background count rate was 1231 (+6, -7) counts/s. We cannot reliably estimate the T90 for this GRB in the veto detector 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.
