report on behalf of the SVOM team:

During the commissioning phase, the SVOM/GRM was triggered in-flight by GRB 240910A (SVOM trigger reference: sb24091005) at 2024-09-10T04:00:46.000 UT (T0), which was also observed by Fermi/GBM (GCN 37441).

The real-time alert data and light curves of SVOM/GRM were downlinked to the ground through the VHF system with low latency. The light curves show that this burst consists of multiple pulses in 300 s.

The SVOM/GRM light curve can be found here:

The Fermi localisation of this burst was not in the ECLAIRs field of view.

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: Wen-Long Zhang (IHEP)(zhangwl@ihep.ac.cn)
