Song, H. Y. Wang, M. Wu, Y. P. Xu, S. N. Zhang (IHEP), report on behalf of the Insight-HXMT team: During the commissioning phase, at 2017-08-05T14:38:34.40 (T0), Insight-HXMT detected GRB 170805A (trigger ID: HEB170805610) in a routine search of the data, which was also observed by Swift/BAT (trigger #766372). The Insight-HXMT light curve mainly consists of a single pulse with a duration (T90) of 0.496 s measured from T0+0.014 s. The 50-ms peak rate, measured from T0+0.35 s, is 3083.8 cnts/sec. The total counts from this burst is 1092.4 counts. URL_LC: http://www.hxmt.org/images/GRB/HEB170805610_lc.jpg All measurements above are made with the CsI detectors operating in the regular mode with the energy range of about 80-800 keV (record energy). Only gamma-rays with energy greater than about 200 keV can penetrate the spacecraft and leave signals in the CsI detectors installed inside of the telescope. The analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published elsewhere. Insight-HXMT is the first Chinese space X-ray telescope, which was funded jointly by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

Starr, on behalf of the GRS-Odyssey GRB team, report: A short-duration GRB 170805A (Ma et al., GCN Circ. 21421) was detected by Swift (BAT), Insight-HXMT, INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS), and Mars-Odyssey (HEND) at about 52714 s UT (14:38:34). The burst was outside the coded field of view of the BAT. We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose coordinates are: --------------------------------------------- RA(2000), deg Dec(2000), deg --------------------------------------------- Center: 269.235 (17h 56m 56s) -18.322 (-18d 19' 19") Corners: 269.038 (17h 56m 09s) -20.543 (-20d 32' 36") 268.879 (17h 55m 31s) -20.576 (-20d 34' 34") 269.536 (17h 58m 09s) -16.073 (-16d 04' 22") 269.697 (17h 58m 47s) -16.036 (-16d 02' 11") --------------------------------------------- The error box area is 2378 sq. arcmin, and its maximum dimension is 4.6 deg (the minimum one is 8.8 arcmin). The Sun distance was 135 deg. This box may be improved.

Sharma (IUCAA), V. Bhalerao (IITB), D. Bhattacharya (IUCAA), A. R. Rao (TIFR) and S. Vadawale (PRL) report on behalf of the AstroSat CZTI collaboration: Analysis of AstroSat CZTI data showed clear detection of short GRB 170805A (Insight-HXMT detection: Ma X. et al, GCN Circ. 21421) in the 40-200 keV energy range. The light curve shows single peak emission at 14:38:34.70 UT, around ~0.7 s before the Insight-HXMT trigger. The measured peak count rate is 4917.1 counts/s above the background in combined data of four quadrants, with a total 22361 counts. The local mean background count rate was 372.9 counts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 0.96 s. It was clearly detected in the CsI anticoincidence detector (Veto) also as bright detection in the 100-500 keV energy range. CZTI GRB detections are reported regularly on the payload site at http://astrosat.iucaa.in/czti/?q=grb. CZTI is built by a TIFR-led consortium of institutes across India, including VSSC, ISAC, IUCAA, SAC and PRL. The Indian Space Research Organisation funded, managed and facilitated the project.
