triggered the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 17:18:02.638 UTC
on 30 September 2024
(https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1411751821/).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors. Because of a problem with the ground
alert processing script, the GCN notice was not distributed automatically for this event.
The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts
at T-1.5 sec, peaks at T+3.5 sec, and ends at T+74.0 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 67.2 s +/- 3.1 sec
and 34.7 s +/- 0.4 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.
The ground-processed light curve is available at
https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1411751821/
The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at Waseda University.
