Regarding the new magnetar SGR J1555.2-5402 discovered by Swift/BAT 
(GCN #30120), there was no GECAM in-flight trigger or on-ground automated 
blind search trigger around the BAT trigger time (2021-06-03T09:45:46). 
Thus, we implemented a targeted search for sub-threshold burst signals 
from +/-35 s around BAT trigger time, using an improved coherent search 
algorithm (C. Cai, In preparation, L. Blackburn et al.). 


From the targeted search, we found a short soft burst at 
2021-06-03T09:45:46.670, with the most significant timescale of 10 ms. 
Its location is consistent with the Swift/BAT position (GCN #30120) and 
the spectrum is soft (Band function with Epeak = 70 keV, alpha = -1.9, 
beta = -3.7). We conclude this bursts is from SGR J1555.2-5402.

Please note that all GECAM results here are preliminary. The final analysis
will be published in journal papers or GECAM online catalog.

Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor
(GECAM) mission consists of two small satellites (GECAM-A and GECAM-B) in
Low Earth Orbit (600 km, 29 deg), launched on Dec 10, 2020 (Beijing Time),
which was funded by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
