and the CALET collaboration:

The long GRB 180722B (Fermi-GBM trigger #553996158; Konus-Wind
trigger time on 23:49:18.90 UT) triggered the CALET Gamma-ray
Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 23:49:16.174 UTC on 22 July 2018.
Because of a problem in one of the ground alert processing script,
the GCN notice was not distributed automatically for this event.

The burst light curve shows two broad pulses which start
at T-4.0 sec and end at T+39.9 sec.
The T90 and the T50 durations measured by the SGM data are
40.1 +- 3.2 sec and 30.0 +- 1.7 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.

The ground processed light curve is available at

http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1216338436/

The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at the Waseda University.
