TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 22785 SUBJECT: GRB 180529A: AstroSat CZTI detection DATE: 18/06/15 15:14:41 GMT FROM: Vidushi Sharma at IUCAA V. Sharma and D. Bhattacharya (IUCAA), V. Bhalerao (IIT-B), A. R. Rao (TIFR) and S. Vadawale (PRL) report on behalf of the Astrosat CZTI collaboration: Analysis of Astrosat CZTI data showed the detection of a short GRB 180529A, which was also detected by IPN Triangulation (Hurley K. et al., GCN 22748), CALET (Onozawa H., GCN 22749) and Konus-Wind (Svinkin D. et al., GCN 22750). The source was clearly detected in the 40-200 keV energy range. The light curve shows multiple peaks of emission with strongest peak at 08:29:15.5 UT. The measured peak count rate is 346.4 cts/s above the background in combined data of four quadrants, with a total of 508 cts. The local mean background count rate was 496.5 cts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 2.9 s. It was also clearly detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector in the 100-500 keV energy range. CZTI GRB detections are reported regularly on the payload site at http://astrosat.iucaa.in/czti/?q=grb. CZTI is built by a TIFR-led consortium of institutes across India, including VSSC, ISAC, IUCAA, SAC and PRL. The Indian Space Research Organisation funded, managed and facilitated the project.
