Report on behalf of the SVOM team:

SVOM/GRM detected the burst GRB 260411A at 2026-04-11T06:36:28.200 UTC (T0), which is also detected by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN #44261).

With the event-by-event data downloaded through the X-band ground station, we conducted the standard analysis pipeline of GRB 260411A. The GRM light curve shows that this burst consists of multiple pulses with a T90 of 2.0 +3.2/-1.6 s in the 15-5000 keV band.

In addition, the position of this burst, as determined by Fermi/GBM (RA= 153.6, DEC=12.0, GCN#44261), is located at about 69.8 degrees from the SVOM optical axis, which is outside the ECLAIRs field of view.

The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA, China), National Center for Space Studies (CNES, France) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS, China), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. GRM is developed by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of CAS.

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

At 06:36:28 UT on 11 Apr 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260411A (trigger 797582193.127706 / 260411275).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 153.6, Dec = 12.0 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 10h 14m, 12d 00'), with a statistical uncertainty of 9.6 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 32.0 degrees.
