and the CALET collaboration:
Using the CALET CALorimeter (CAL) data, we report GeV gamma-ray search
analysis associated to GRB 180703B (Racusin et al. GCN Circ. 22884;
Takahashi et al. GCN Circ. 22888; Poolakkil and Meegan GCN Circ. 22897;
Hurley et al. GCN Circ. 22908; Frederiks et al. GCN Circ. 22914).
The CAL was operating in low energy trigger mode at the trigger time of
the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM). We have searched for
gamma-ray events in the 1-10 GeV band from -60 sec to +60 sec from
the CGBM trigger time using the Fermi-LAT position (Racusin et al.
GCN Circ. 22884) and found no candidates. The 90% upper limit of CAL is
1.5e-6 erg/cm2/s (1-10 GeV) assuming a power-law spectrum of a photon
index of -2.
All the quoted values are preliminary.
