The long GRB 260407A (Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization: Fermi GBM team,
GCN Circ. 44226; Glowbug gamma-ray detection: Cheung et al., GCN Circ 44237)
triggered the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 09:11:06.11 UTC on 7 April 2026
(https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1459588274/index.html).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.
The burst light curve shows a single pulse that starts
at T-0.5 sec, peaks at T+1.6 sec, and ends at T+27.1 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 22.6 +/- 5.0 sec
and 7.0 +/- 1.0 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.
