TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 8668 SUBJECT: GRB 081213: Fermi GBM detection DATE: 08/12/15 16:00:47 GMT FROM: Elisabetta Bissaldi at MPE E. Bissaldi and A. von Kienlin (MPE) report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 04:09:41.64 UT on 13 December 2008, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor triggered and located GRB 081213 (trigger 250834182 / 081213173). The on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger data, is RA = 25.5, Dec = -35.3 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to 01h 42m, -35d 18'), with an uncertainty of 12.5 degrees (radius, 1-sigma containment, statistical only; there is additionally a systematic error which is currently estimated to be 2 to 3 degrees). The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 51 degrees. This short GRB consists of a single peak with a duration of about 50 ms. Since the source is weak, the time-averaged spectrum is poorly constrained."
