Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 8927 SUBJECT: GRB 090228B: Fermi GBM detection DATE: 09/03/03 23:31:08 GMT FROM: Vandiver Chaplin at UAH/Fermi-GBM V.Chaplin (UAH) reports on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 23:25:01.02 UT on 28 FEB 2009, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor triggered and located GRB 090228B (trigger 257556303 / 090228976). The on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger data, is RA = 356.5, DEC = +36.1 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to 23h 44m, +36d 10' ), with an uncertainty of 1.77 degrees (radius, 1-sigma containment, statistical only; there is additionally a systematic error which is currently estimated to be 2 to 3 degrees). The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 20 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of one main pulse with a duration (T90) of about 7.232 s (8-1000 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-1.408 s to T0+5.760 s is adequately fit by a power law function with an exponential high energy cutoff. The power law index is -0.6963 +/- 0.293 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 147.8 +/- 34.1 keV (chi squared 221.01 for 235 d.o.f.). The event fluence (8-1000 keV) in this time interval is (9.9607 +/- 0.22)E-07 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+2.688 s in the 8-1000 keV band is 2.53 +/- 1.0 ph/s/cm^2. The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog."
