TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 30573 SUBJECT: GRB 210731A: Fermi GBM Observation DATE: 21/08/01 15:26:20 GMT FROM: Oliver J Roberts at USRA/NASA S. Lesage (UAH) and C. Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "At 22:21:07 UT on 31 July 2021, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 210731A (trigger 649462872/210731931) which was also detected by Swift BAT (E. Troja et al. 2021, GCN 30568). The Fermi GBM on-ground location is consistent with the Swift BAT position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 102 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of a single emission episode with a duration (T90) of about 26 s (10-1000 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0+0.003 to T0+19.968 s is best fit by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -0.1 +/- 0.1 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 175 +/- 11 keV. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (4.9 +/- 0.2)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+10.3 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 2.9 +/- 0.3 ph/s/cm^2. The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog: https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/W3Browse/fermi/fermigbrst.html For Fermi GBM data and info, please visit the official Fermi GBM Support Page: https://fermi.gsfc.nasa.gov/ssc/data/access/gbm/"
