TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 8855 SUBJECT: GRB 090126C: Fermi GBM detection DATE: 09/01/27 16:24:35 GMT FROM: Andreas von Kienlin at MPE A. von Kienlin (MPE) reports on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 05:52:33.73 UT on 26 January 2009, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor triggered and located GRB 090126C (trigger 254641955 / 090126245). The on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger data, is RA = 222.9, DEC = 39.2 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to 14h 52m, 39d 12'), with an uncertainty of 14.6 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 68 degrees. Since this GRB is weak and short (~ 1 sec), the time-averaged spectrum is poorly constrained."
