Marrocchesi (U of Siena) and the CALET collaboration: The long-duration GRB 180120A (Fermi-GBM trigger #538117098; Konus-Wind trigger time on 04:58:18.23) triggered the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 04:58:09.54 on 20 January 2018. The burst signal was seen by the all CGBM instruments. The light curve shows two bright overlapping pulses. The first pulse starts at T-2 sec, peaks at T+6 sec and ends at T+20 sec. There is a possible additional pulse around T+15 sec. The second pulse starts at T+15 sec, peaks at T+25 sec and ends at T+40 sec. The T90 and the T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 24.9 +- 4.1 sec and 16.3 +- 0.4 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively. The ground processed light curve is available at http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1200459271/ The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at the Waseda University. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 22367 SUBJECT: GRB 180120A: Fermi GBM Detection DATE: 18/01/23 22:32:28 GMT FROM: Matthew Stanbro at UAH/Fermi M. Stanbro and C. Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 04:58:13.00 UT on 20 January 2018, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor triggered and located GRB 180120A (trigger 538117098 / 180120207) which was also detected by the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (Y. Shimizu et al. 2018, GCN 22366). The on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger data, is RA = 151.77, DEC = 27.79, with an uncertainty of 1 degree (radius, 1-sigma containment, statistical only; there is additionally a systematic error which we have characterized as a core-plus-tail model, with 90% of GRBs having a 3.7 deg error and a small tail suffering a larger than 10 deg systematic error. [Connaughton et al. 2015, ApJS, 216, 32]. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight at the GBM trigger time is 85 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of several episodes with a duration (T90) of about 29 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0+0.90 s to T0+30.59 s is best fit by a Band function with Epeak = 130 +/- 2 keV, alpha = -1.05 +/- 0.01, and beta = -2.58 +/- 0.05. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (6.27 +/- 0.05)E-05 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+17.66 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 36.70 +/- 0.50 ph/s/cm^2. The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog." //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 22370 SUBJECT: GRB 180120A: AstroSat CZTI detection DATE: 18/01/26 05:36:19 GMT FROM: Vidushi Sharma at IUCAA V. Sharma (IUCAA), V. Bhalerao (IIT-B), 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 the detection of a long GRB 180120A, which was also detected by Fermi-GBM (Stanbro M. et al., GCN 22367) and CALET (Shimizu Y. et al., GCN 22366). The source was clearly detected in the 40-200 keV energy range. The light curve shows multiple peaks of emission with strongest peak at 04:58:15.5 UT, 2.5 s after the Fermi-GBM trigger. The measured peak count rate is 695.2 cts/s above the background in combined data of four quadrants, with a total of 7955 cts. The local mean background count rate was 557 cts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 26.8 s. It was also clearly detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector 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.
