GRB 240821A: Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization
Abstract
At 18:36:02 UT on 21 Aug 2024, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 240821A (trigger 745958167.601766 / 240821775). The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 348.4, Dec = -14.1 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 23h 13m, -14d 05'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.0 degrees. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 89.0 degrees.
