Report on behalf of the SVOM team:

SVOM/GRM was triggered in-flight by GRB 250330B (SVOM trigger reference: sb25033007) at 2025-03-30T21:52:22.100 (T0). This burst was also detected by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 39951). 

With the event-by-event data downloaded through the X-band ground station, the GRM light curve shows that this burst consists of single main pulse with a T90 of 0.48 +0.32/-0.11 s in the 15-5000 keV band.

In addition, ECLAlRs was taking data and did not trigger, since the position of this burst, as determined by Fermi/GBM (GCN 39951, RA: 114.1 deg, DEC: 13.3 deg, Error: 3.1 deg), is located at about 96.2 degrees from the SVOM optical axis, and outside 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.
