Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 9498 SUBJECT: GRB 090608: Fermi GBM detection DATE: 09/06/09 04:21:53 GMT FROM: Alexander van der Horst at NASA/MSFC A.J. van der Horst (NASA/MSFC/ORAU) reports on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 01:15:26.60 UT on 8 June 2009, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 090608 (trigger 266116528 / 090608.052). The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 100.2, Dec = -37.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 6h41m, -37d25'), with a statistical uncertainty of 4.5 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 93 degrees. The GBM light curve of this long and soft GRB consists of multiple peaks and has a duration (T90) of 61 s (8-1000 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-18.4 to T0+20.5 s is adequately fit by a power law with index = -1.83 +/- 0.07. The fluence (8-1000 keV) in this interval is (3.2 +/- 0.1)E-6 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+2.1s in the 8-1000 keV band is 2.7 +/- 0.1 ph/s/cm^2. The spectral and temporal analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog."
