TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44382 SUBJECT: GRB 260421B: Fermi GBM Observation DATE: 26/04/21 19:36:16 GMT FROM: oindabimukherjee@gmail.com O. Mukherjee (USRA) reports on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "At 04:13:21.17 UT on 21 April 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260421B (trigger 798437606/260421176), which was also detected by SVOM/ECLAIRs (Zhao et al. 2026, GCN 44362), and VLT/X-shooter with spectroscopic redshift z = 2.115 (Schneider et al. 2026, GCN 44368). The Fermi GBM on-ground location (GCN 44360) is consistent with the SVOM/ECLAIRs position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 58 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of a single emission episode with a duration (T90) of about 18 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-1.6 to T0+24.9 s is best fit by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -1.11 +/- 0.01 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 159 +/- 1 keV. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (1.06 +/- 0.01)E-05 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+15 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 15.4 +/- 0.3 ph/s/cm^2. A Band function fits the spectrum equally well with Epeak= 130 +/- 1 keV, alpha = -1 +/- 0.005 and beta = -2.31 +/- 0.02. The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog: https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/W3Browse/fermi/fermigbrst.html For Fermi GBM data and info, please visit the official Fermi GBM Support Page: https://fermi.gsfc.nasa.gov/ssc/data/access/gbm/" View this GCN Circular online at https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/44382. --- To unsubscribe, open this link in a web browser: https://gcn.nasa.gov/unsubscribe/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6InZzbmV0LW...
