E.Bozzo, V.Savchenko (ISDC, Versoix), L.Ducci (IAAT, Germany and ISDC,
Versoix) and J.Borkowski (CAMK, Torun) report:
a gamma ray burst lasting about 200 s with a multi-peaked structure has been detected by IBAS in the
IBIS/ISGRI data at 20:12:43 UT of February 20, 2019.
The refined coordinates (J2000) are:
R.A.= 242.4512 deg
DEC.= -21.1314 deg
with an uncertainty of 2.0 arcmin (90% c.l.).
The burst had a peak flux of 0.2 counts/cm2/s (20-200 keV, 1-s integration time) and a fluence in the same energy range of about 3.6e-6
erg/cmsq.
A plot of the light curve will be posted at
