The Swift GRB 201013A (Page et al., GCN Circ. 28607, Laha et al.,
GCN Circ. 28614; https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/other/201013A.gcn3)
triggered the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 03:46:29.773 UTC
on 13 October 2020 (http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1286595863/).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.

The burst light curve shows a double-peaked structure which starts
at T+0.5 sec and ends at T+7.5 sec. The T90 and T50 durations measured
by the SGM data are 6.4 +- 0.4 sec and 1.9 +- 0.6 sec (40-1000 keV),
respectively.

The ground processed light curve is available at

http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1286595863/

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