Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 22247 SUBJECT: GRB 171212B: Fermi-LAT detection DATE: 17/12/12 22:00:25 GMT FROM: Giacomo Vianello at SLAC D. Kocevski (NASA/MSFC), F. Longo (Univ & INFN Trieste), E. Bissaldi (Politecnico & INFN Bari), and G. Vianello (Stanford) report on behalf of the Fermi-LAT team: At 10:24:18.51 UT on December 12, 2017, Fermi-LAT detected high-energy emission from GRB 171212B, which was also detected by Fermi-GBM (trigger 534767063 / 171212434). The best LAT on-ground location is found to be RA, Dec = 39.44, -70.62 (J2000) with an error radius of 0.39 deg (90 % containment, statistical error only). This was 11 deg from the LAT boresight at the time of the trigger. The data from the Fermi-LAT show a significant increase in the event rate that is spatially correlated with the trigger with high significance. The highest-energy photon is a 931 MeV event which is observed 544 seconds after the GBM trigger. The Fermi-LAT point of contact for this burst is Francesco Longo (francesco.longo@ts.infn.it). The Fermi-LAT is a pair conversion telescope designed to cover the energy band from 20 MeV to greater than 300 GeV. It is the product of an international collaboration between NASA and DOE in the U.S. and many scientific institutions across France, Italy, Japan and Sweden.

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 22249 SUBJECT: GRB 171212B: Fermi GBM observation DATE: 17/12/12 22:51:03 GMT FROM: Elisabetta Bissaldi at U.Innsbruk/IAPP E. Bissaldi (Politecnico & INFN Bari) and C. Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 10:24:18.51 UT on 12 December 2017, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor triggered and located GRB 171212B (trigger 534767063 / 171212434), which was also detected by the Fermi-LAT (Kocevski et al. 2012, GCN 22247). The GBM on-ground location is consistent with the LAT position. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight at the GBM trigger time is 11 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of a multipeak emission episode with a duration (T90) of about 32 s (50-300 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0 to T0+32 s is adequately fit by a Band function with Epeak = 74 +/- 9 keV, alpha = -0.95 +/- 0.13, and beta = -2.32 +/- 0.15. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (5.744 +/- 0.3)E-06 erg/cm^2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+27 s in the 10-1000 keV band is 5.0 +/- 0.3 ph/s/cm^2. The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog."
