report on behalf of the SVOM team:

During the commissioning phase, the SVOM/GRM was triggered in-flight by GRB 241107A at 2024-11-07T23:30:00.100 UT (T0).

The real-time alert data and light curves of SVOM/GRM were downlinked to the ground through the VHF system with low latency. The GRM light curve shows that this burst consists of a single pulse followed by a tail with a T90 of 0.5 +0.1/-0.1 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.

The SVOM point of contact for this burst is: Chen-Wei Wang (IHEP)(cwwang@ihep.ac.cn)
