SUBJECT: GRB 241229C: Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization
DATE: 24/12/29 23:38:14 GMT
FROM: Fermi GBM Team at MSFC/Fermi-GBM
The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB
At 23:27:37 UT on 29 Dec 2024, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 241229C (trigger 757207662.335616 / 241229978).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 219.8, Dec = 15.3 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 14h 39m, 15d 18'), with a statistical uncertainty of 16.2 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 12.0 degrees.

SUBJECT: Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor trigger 757207662/241229978 (GRB 241229C) is not a GRB
DATE: 24/12/30 00:22:47 GMT
FROM: Ava Myers at NASA GSFC
A. Myers (NPP/GSFC) reports on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team:
"The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) trigger 757207662/241229978 at 23:27:37.34 UT
on 29 December 2024, tentatively classified as a GRB, is in fact not due
to a GRB. This trigger is likely due to a solar flare." |
