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

At 22:40:18 UT on 11 May 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230511D (trigger 705537623.19843 / 230511945).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 237.5, Dec = -17.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 15h 50m, -17d 23'), with a statistical uncertainty of 21.7 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 79.0 degrees.
