The long GRB 240303B (Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization: Fermi GBM team,
GCN Circ. 35850; BALROG localization: Preis et al., GCN Circ 35851; 
INTEGRAL SPI-ACS: Trigger 10612; GECAM: Trigger 301) triggered the 
CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 12:18:48.35 UTC on 3 March 2024
(http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1393503263/).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.

The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts
at T+2.7 sec, peaks at T+7.2 sec, and ends at T+11.2 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 5.5 +/- 0.4 sec
and 2.0 +/- 0.1 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.

The ground-processed light curve is available at

http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1393503263/index.html

The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at Waseda University.
