40252) triggered the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at
06:52:04.323 UTC on 24 April 2025
(https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1429512582/index.html).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.
The burst light curve shows a single pulse that starts
at T+2.5 sec, peaks at T+8.4 sec, and ends at T+27.5 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 13.5 +/- 0.8 sec
and 4.6 +/- 0.2 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.
The ground-processed light curve is available at

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