The long-duration GRB 180416B (Fermi-GBM trigger #545609416; Konus-Wind trigger
time on 22:10:10.60 UT) triggered the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at
22:10:09.279 UTC on 16 April 2018. The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.
The burst light curve shows a single pulse which starts at T+1.6 sec, peaks at
T+3.1 sec and ends at ~T+14 sec, followed by a weak tail seen up to ~T+62 sec.
The T90 and the T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 51.6 +- 12.7 sec
and 17.4 +- 8.4 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.
The ground processed light curve is available at

Center located at the Waseda University.
