TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 36516 SUBJECT: GRB 240519A: AstroSat CZTI detection DATE: 24/05/20 07:33:32 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 long-duration GRB 240519A which was also detected by Fermi-GBM (Preis et al., GCN Circ. 36513). The source was detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector in the 100-500 keV energy range. The light curve peaks at 2024-05-19 05:06:59.32 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 156 (+84, -8) counts/s above the background in the combined data of all quadrants, with a total of 906 (+431, -413) counts. The local mean background count rate was 1334 (+6, -8) counts/s. We measure a T90 of 8.2 (+5.9, -3.6) s from the cumulative Veto light curve. The source was also faintly detected in the CZT detectors in the 20-200 keV energy range. 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.
