J. Lu, L. M. Song, H. Y. Wang, M. Wu, Y. P. Xu, S. N. Zhang (IHEP), report on behalf of the Insight-HXMT team: During the commissioning phase, at 2017-09-21T00:43:37.00 (T0), Insight-HXMT/HE detected GRB 170921C (trigger ID: HEB170921030) with a significance of 12 sigma in a routine search of the data, which is also detected by Fermi/GBM subthreshold trigger (trig time: 2017-09-21T00:43:37.18). The Insight-HXMT light curve mainly consists of a single pulse with a duration (T90) of 1.2 s measured from T0-0.27 s. The 500-ms peak rate, measured from T0+0.06 s, is 1220.3 cnts/sec. The total counts from this burst is 1247.3 counts. URL_LC: http://www.hxmt.org/images/GRB/HEB170921030_lc.jpg All measurements above are made with the CsI detectors operating in the regular mode with the energy range of about 80-800 keV (record energy). Only gamma-rays with energy greater than about 200 keV can penetrate the spacecraft and leave signals in the CsI detectors installed inside of the telescope. The analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published elsewhere. Insight-HXMT is the first Chinese space X-ray telescope, which was funded jointly by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). More information about it could be found at: http://www.hxmt.org/index.php/enhome . [GCN OPS NOTE(26sep17): The name was changed from "21A" to "21C".] //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 21925 SUBJECT: Correction to GCN Circular 21919: GRB 170921C: Insight-HXMT detection DATE: 17/09/25 06:25:32 GMT FROM: Yifei Zhang at IHEP Y. F. Zhang and the Insight-HXMT collaboration We just find that the GRB name (GRB 170921A) used in our pervious GCN circular (Zhang et al. GCN 21919) is wrong. The correct GRB name is GRB 170921C since GRB 170921A and GRB 170921B were already named for the GRBs detected respectively by Swift/BAT on 14:28:48 UT (D'Ai et al. GCN 21901) and Fermi/GBM on 04:02:11.51 UT (Bissaldi et al. GCN 21902). Apologies for any confusion caused.
