report on behalf of the SVOM team:

During the commissioning phase, the SVOM/GRM was triggered on-ground by GRB 240930B / EP 240930a at 2024-09-30T17:18:08 UT (T0), which was also observed by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 37640; Smith & Meegan, GCN 37660), EP/WXT (X. Tian et al., GCN 37648), Swift/BAT (James DeLaunay et al., GCN 37654), GRBAlpha (M. Dafcikova et al., GCN 37658), CALET/GBM (Y. Shimizu et al., GCN 37691), HEND/Mars Odyssey, Konus-Wind and INTEGRAL SPI-ACS (A.S. Kozyrev et al. GCN 37696).

With the event-by-event data downloaded through the X-band ground station, the GRM light curve shows that this burst consists of multiple pulses with a T90 of 68.4 +6.2/-6.1 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.
