report:

The short-duration GRB 230511D
(Fermi-GBM detection: The Fermi GBM team, GCN Circ. 33775)
was detected by Fermi (GBM trigger 705537623) and
INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS) at about 81618 s UT (22:40:18).

We have triangulated it to a GBM-SPI-ACS annulus centered at
RA(2000)=33.057 deg (02h 12m 14s) Dec(2000)=-40.890 deg (-40d 53' 25")
whose radius is 63.439 +/- 5.830 deg (3 sigma).

The annulus combined with the Fermi-GBM final position (GCN 33775;
glg_healpix_all_bn230511945_v00) gives 530 sq. deg (3 sigma) localization region.

behalf of the Zwicky Transient Facility Collaboration.

We observed the localization region of Fermi GRB 230511D (trigger
705537623). We obtained a total of 75 images covering ztfg, ztfr bands for
a total of 8750 seconds. The observations covered 951.5 square degrees
beginning at 2023-05-12T04:02:10.000 (5 hours after the burst trigger time)
corresponding to ~60% of the probability enclosed in the localization
region. The median depth of the observations was ~21.3 mag. Our
observations cover the part of the localization that is northwards of -24
degrees declination. Any candidate-counterparts will be announced in
forthcoming GCNs.

The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB

At 22:40:18 UT on 11 May 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230511D (trigger 705537623.19843 / 230511945).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 237.5, Dec = -17.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 15h 50m, -17d 23'), with a statistical uncertainty of 21.7 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 79.0 degrees.
