At 15:57:23.469 UTC on 22 February 2021, the CALET Gamma-ray Burst
Monitor (CGBM) triggered on long GRB 210222A
(http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1298044600/),
which was also detected by the MAXI/GSC at T0(CGBM)+116 s
(Nakajima et al., GCN Circ. 29543).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.
The burst light curve shows a FRED-like pulse which starts at T+0.6 sec,
peaks at T+7.5 sec, and ends at T+87.3 sec. The T90 and T50 durations
measured by the SGM data are 71.4 +- 11.5 sec and 33.5 +- 4.4 sec
(40-1000 keV), respectively.
The ground processed light curve is available at
http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1298044600/
The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at the Waseda University.
