Yue Wang, Chen-Wei Wang, Shao-Lin Xiong (IHEP) report on behalf of GECAM team:
GECAM-B was triggered in-flight by GRB 260607B at 2026-06-07T13:19:30.100 UTC (denoted as T0), which is also detected by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM team, GCN #44859) and Feimi/LAT (Airasca et. al., GCN #44860).
According to the GECAM-B light curves in about 70-6000 keV, this burst mainly consists of muplti-pulses with a duration (T90) of 46.3 +0.1/-0.1 s.
The GECAM-B light curve can be found here:

Using the localization reported by Fermi/LAT (Ra = 54.68 deg, Dec = 30.45 deg, Err = 0.40 deg, GCN #44860) , the time-averaged spectrum from T0-0 s to T0+55 s is best fitted by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -1.03 +0.03/-0.03 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 768 +49/-45 keV. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (3.09 +/-0.03)E-04 erg/cm^2.

Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) mission originally consists of two micro-satellites (GECAM-A and GECAM-B) launched in Dec. 2020. As the third member of GECAM constellation, GECAM-C was launched onboard SATech-01 experimental satellite in July 2022. GECAM mission is funded by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
