AI Summary

The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) detected a long gamma-ray burst (GRB 260313A) with an initial inaccurate localization that was later corrected. Key measurements include a statistical uncertainty of 5.8 degrees and a 15-degree angle from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) boresight. Follow-up observations by the MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope provided upper limits ranging from 12.5 to 19.8 mag.

The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor team has retracted their initial classification of GRB 260313A (trigger 795096033/260312500), which was previously identified as a gamma-ray burst on March 13, 2026. The nature of this trigger is now considered uncertain.

GCN-43998 — GRB 260313A · Sat, 14 Mar 2026 01:16:55 GMT
The MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope in Russia began observing Fermi GRB 260313A 31381 seconds after the initial notice and 31405 seconds after the trigger time. The observations were carried out with upper limits ranging from 12.5 to 19.8 mag in the clear filter. The location of the GRB is at galactic latitude b = 39 deg., longitude l = 17 deg.
