//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 33395 SUBJECT: GRB 230304A: Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization DATE: 23/03/04 06:31:10 GMT FROM: Fermi GBM Team at MSFC/Fermi-GBM The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB At 06:20:54 UT on 4 Mar 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230304A (trigger 699603659.15977 / 230304265). The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 29.2, Dec = 32.8 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 01h 56m, 32d 47'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.6 degrees. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 103.0 degrees.

Navaneeth (IUCAA), R. Gopalakrishnan (IUCAA), G. Waratkar (IITB), A. Vibhute (IUCAA), V. Bhalerao (IITB), D. Bhattacharya (Ashoka University/IUCAA), A. R. Rao (IUCAA/TIFR), and S. Vadawale (PRL) report on behalf of the AstroSat CZTI collaboration: Analysis of AstroSat CZTI data with the CIFT framework (Sharma et al., 2021, JApA, 42, 73) showed the detection of a long GRB 230304A which was also detected by Fermi GBM (GCN Circ. 33395). The source was detected in the 20-200 keV energy range. The light curve showed multiple peaks of emission with the strongest peak at 2023-03-04 06:21:01.35 UTC. The measured peak count rate associated with the burst is 292 (+147, -18) counts/s above the background in the combined data of three quadrants (out of four), with a total of 577 (+223, -214) counts. The local mean background count rate was 325 (+4, -6) counts/s. Using cumulative rates, we measure a T90 of 9.73 (+3, -4) s. It was also detected in the CsI anticoincidence (Veto) detector in the 100-500 keV energy range. The light curve peaks at 2023-03-04 06:21:00.9 UTC. The measured peak count rate is 927 (+77, -84) counts/s above the background in the combined Veto data of all quadrants, with a total of 5710 (+511, -579) counts. The local mean background count rate was 1423 (+5, -6) counts/s. We measure a T90 of 10.23 (+4, -2) s from the cumulative Veto light curve. 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, URSC, IUCAA, SAC, and PRL. The Indian Space Research Organisation funded, managed, and facilitated the project.
