The long GRB 250126A (Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization:
Fermi GBM team, GCN Circ. 39035; BALROG localization: Preis et al.,
GCN Circ 39036; MAXI/GSC detection: Okada et al., GCN Circ 39038)
was detected in the ground analysis of the CALET Gamma-ray 
Burst Monitor (CGBM) data around 04:58:50.99 on 26 January 2025 (referenced
to the Fermi-GBM Observation: GCN Circ. 39035).
(https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1421902612/index.html).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors. 

The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts
at T-0.3 sec, peaks at T+85.4 sec, and ends at T+100.1 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the HXM2 data are 96.9 +/- 1.4 sec
and 82.5 +/- 1.3 sec (7-100 keV), respectively.

The ground-processed light curve is available at

https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1421902612/

The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at Waseda University.
