The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB

At 04:25:49 UT on 11 Sep 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230911B (trigger 716099154.520658 / 230911185).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 351.7, Dec = -55.0 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 23h 26m, -55d 00'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.1 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 131.0 degrees.
