GRB 230818A: Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization
Abstract
At 23:27:35 UT on 18 Aug 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230818A (trigger 714094060.372856 / 230818977). The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 289.2, Dec = 41.0 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 19h 16m, 41d 00'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.7 degrees. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 79.0 degrees.
