Vertat (FEL ZCU) -- the VZLUSAT-2/GRB payload collaboration. A long-duration GRB 220719A (triggered by KONUS-Wind at 2022/07/19 19:09:46.939 UT; also detected by INTEGRAL/SPI-ACS with peak at 2022/07/19 19:09:45.0 UT - private communication with Dmitry Svinkin) was detected by a GRB detector on board of the VZLUSAT-2 3U CubeSat ( https://www.vzlusat2.cz/en/). The data acquisition was performed by the GRB detector unit no. 1. The 6.2 sigma detection was confirmed at the peak time 2022-07-19 19:09:43.5 UTC. The GRB has the T90 duration of 7 s. The light curve obtained by VZLUSAT-2 is available here: https://vzlusat2.konkoly.hu/static/share/GRB220719A_GCN_VZLUSAT2.pdf GRB detectors on VZLUSAT-2 are a demonstration payload for a future CubeSats constellation (Werner et al. Proc. SPIE 2018). Two GRB modules of VZLUSAT-2 are placed in a perpendicular manner and each consists of a 75 x 75 x 5 mm3 CsI scintillator read out by a SiPM array, covering the energy range from ~30 keV to ~1000 keV. VZLUSAT-2 was launched on 2022 January 13 from Cape Canaveral. We acknowledge the help of Dmitry Svinkin (Ioffe Institute) and Anastasia Tsvetkova (Ioffe Institute) with the confirmation that this event was a long GRB and also detected by INTEGRAL/SPI-ACS.
