GCN Circular 41769

Yinuo MA, Donghua ZHAO, Wenjin XIE (NAOC), Li ZHANG (IHEP), Charlotte VAN HOVE(IJCLab) report on behalf of the SVOM mission team:

At 2025-09-10T03:16:30 UTC (T0), SVOM/ECLAIRs triggered and located the gamma-ray burst GRB 250910A (SVOM burst-id sb25091001).

The following trigger information was received on the ground with low latency by the SVOM VHF Alert Network.

The burst was detected both by the Count-Rate Trigger (CRT) and the Image Trigger (IMT), which produced a sequence of 8 alerts. IMT provided the alert with the best signal-to-noise-ratio in the image (SNR) of 8.02 in the [5-20] keV energy band over a time window of 40.96 seconds starting at 2025-09-10T03:16:10.

The localization of the best alert is R.A., Dec. 39.7665, -39.6758 degrees: R.A. (J2000) = 2h39m03.96s Dec. (J2000) = -39d40m32.94s with a 90% confidence level (C.L.) radius of 9.80 arcmin (including systematic error of 2 arcmin added in quadrature).

SVOM/GRM had no significant detection.

SVOM slewed to the burst. SVOM/MXT and SVOM/VT were occulted by the Earth.

The Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA), French Space Agency (CNES), and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. SVOM/ECLAIRs was developed jointly by CNES, CEA-IRFU, CNRS-IRAP, CNRS-APC. SVOM/GRM was developed by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of CAS. SVOM/MXT was developed jointly by CNES, CEA-IRFU, CNRS-IJCLab, University of Leicester, MPE.
