report:

The short-duration GRB 240810A
(Fermi-GBM detection: The Fermi GBM team, GCN 37133)
was detected by Fermi (GBM), Konus-Wind, INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS),
and Mars-Odyssey (HEND) at about 76039 s UT (21:07:19).

We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box
whose coordinates are:
 ---------------------------------------------
  RA(2000), deg                 Dec(2000), deg
 ---------------------------------------------
 Center:
  146.339 (09h 45m 21s) -38.135 (-38d 08' 07")
 Corners:
  146.325 (09h 45m 18s) -38.221 (-38d 13' 16")
  146.211 (09h 44m 51s) -38.270 (-38d 16' 13")
  146.353 (09h 45m 25s) -38.050 (-38d 02' 58")
  146.467 (09h 45m 52s) -38.000 (-37d 60' 00")
 ---------------------------------------------
The error box area is 51 sq. arcmin, and its maximum
dimension is 20 arcmin (the minimum one is 3 arcmin).
The Sun distance was 53 deg.

The IPN localization is consistent with, but reduces the area of,
the Fermi-GBM localization.

This localization may be improved.

A triangulation map and HEALPix FITS file are posted at
http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB240810_T76037/IPN/
The HEALPix triangulation map is the multi-order HEALPix in units of
probability density.

The Konus-Wind time history and spectrum will be given
in a forthcoming GCN Circular.
