Fermi GBM Team at MSFC/Fermi-GBM <do_not_reply@GIOC.nsstc.nasa.gov>
The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB

At 11:28:43 UT on 5 Sep 2022, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 220905A (trigger 684070128.696976 / 220905478).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 343.5, Dec = -33.5 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 22h 53m, -33d 30'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.0 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 88.0 degrees.

B. Biltzinger, F. Kunzweiler, F. Berlato, J. Burgess & J. Greiner (all MPE Garching) report:

The public trigdat data of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) trigger
684070128 at 11:28:43 on 05 Sept. 2022 were automatically fitted for spectrum
and sky location with BALROG (Burgess et al. 2018, MNRAS 476, 1427;
Berlato et al. 2019, ApJ 873, 60).

The best-fit position (1 sigma statistical errors) is:
RA(2000.0) = 345.2+/-1.7 deg
Decl.(2000.0) = -35.4+/-1.5 deg
We estimate an additional systematic error of 1 deg.

on behalf of the Swift-BAT team, report:

The long-duration GRB 220905A
(Fermi-GBM detection: Fermi GBM Team, GCN Circ. 32518,
BALROG localization: Biltzinger et al., GCN Circ. 32519)
was detected by Fermi (GBM trigger 684070128),
INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS), Konus-Wind, and Swift (BAT)
at about 41324 s UT (11:28:44).
The burst was outside the coded field of view of the BAT.

We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box
whose coordinates are:
  ---------------------------------------------
   RA(2000), deg                 Dec(2000), deg
  ---------------------------------------------
  Center:
   338.931 (22h 35m 43s) -37.594 (-37d 35' 38")
  Corners:
   341.100 (22h 44m 24s) -39.495 (-39d 29' 42")
   341.797 (22h 47m 11s)  +6.185 ( +6d 11' 06")
   336.870 (22h 27m 29s) -35.655 (-35d 39' 18")
   289.822 (19h 19m 17s) -23.843 (-23d 50' 36")
  ---------------------------------------------
The error box area is 349.6 sq. deg, and its maximum
dimension is 87.7 deg (the minimum one is 5 deg).
The Sun distance was 125 deg.

This box may be improved.

The IPN localization is consistent with, but reduces the area of, the
Fermi GBM Final Real-time position (GCN Circ. 31955) and BALROG
(GCN 31950) localizations.

A triangulation map and HEALPix FITS file are posted at
http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB220905_T41330/IPN

The Konus-Wind time history and spectrum will be given in a forthcoming
GCN Circular.
