TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 28829 SUBJECT: GRB 201104A: AGILE/MCAL detection DATE: 20/11/04 20:46:45 GMT FROM: Alessandro Ursi at INAF/IAPS A. Ursi (INAF/IAPS), F. Verrecchia, C.

Longo (Univ. Trieste and INFN Trieste), A. Giuliani (INAF/IASF-Mi), report on behalf of the AGILE Team: The AGILE Mini-CALorimeter (MCAL) detected GRB 201104A at T0 = 2020-11-04 00:00:56.77 +/- 0.01 s (UTC), reported by Fermi/GBM (GCN #28823) and INTEGRAL/SPI-ACS (trigger ID 8789,0). The event lasted about 8 s and released a total number of ~7200 counts in the detector (in the 0.4-100 MeV energy range), above an average background rate of 640 Hz. The light curve shows sveral episodes and can be found at http://www.agilescienceapp.it/notices/GRB_070287_531532856.770000.png . The time-integrated spectrum of the burst can be fitted in the energy range 0.4-20 MeV with a single power-law with ph.ind. = -2.26 -0.15/+0.18, resulting in a reduced chi-squared of 1.06 (75 d.o.f.) and a fluence of 3.57e-06 ergs/cm^2 (90% confidence level), in the same energy range. The burst is clearly visible in the AGILE scientific ratemeters of the MCAL detector. The event released a total number of 25100 counts, above a background rate of 1255 Hz. The AGILE ratemeter light curves can be found at http://www.agilescienceapp.it/notices/GRB_201104A_AGILE_RM.png . The AGILE-MCAL detector is a CsI detector with a 4 pi FoV, sensitive in the energy range 0.4-100 MeV. Additional analysis of AGILE data is in progress.
