GCN Circular 40473

O. Mukherjee (USRA) and C. Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of
the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team:

"At 14:35:29.28 UT on 16 May 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 250516A (trigger 769098934/250516608).
which was also detected by Swift BAT (A. P. Beardmore et al. 2025, GCN 40467

 ).
The Fermi GBM on-ground location is consistent with the Swift BAT position.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 36 degrees.

The GBM light curve consists of two peaks with a duration (T90)
of about 21.8 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum
from T0-1.4 to T0+25.2 s is best fit by
a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff.
The power law index is -1.26 +/- 0.07 and the cutoff energy,
parameterized as Epeak, is 200 +/- 30 keV.

The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is
(4.8 +/- 0.3)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured
starting from T0+5.1 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 5.8 +/- 0.3 ph/s/cm^2.

The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary;
final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog:
