report on behalf of the SVOM team:

During the commissioning phase, the SVOM/GRM detected a long GRB 240828A at 2024-08-28T14:55:07.200 UT (T0), which was also observed by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM team, GCN #37317; S. Dalessi et al., GCN #37341), AstroSat CZTI (S. Srijan et al., GCN #37328), Fermi-LAT (R. Gupta et al., GCN #37331), GECAM (Yan-Qiu Zhang et al., GCN #37377) and INTEGRAL/SPI-ACS (trigger #10876).

At the time of this burst ECLAIRs was not acquiring data. 

With the event-by-event data downloaded through the X-band ground station, the light curve shows that this burst consists of multiple pulses with a duration of about 45 s.

The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA, China), National Center for Space Studies (CNES, France) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS, China), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. GRM is developed by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of CAS.

The SVOM/GRM point of contact for this burst is: Yan-Qiu Zhang (IHEP)(zhangyanqiu@ihep.ac.cn)
