; Konus-Wind detection trigger time at 2022-12-02 
21:41:58.66 UT; INTEGRAL/SPI-ACS detection peak at ~2022-12-02 21:42:00 
UT) was marginally detected by the GRB detector on board of the 
VZLUSAT-2 3U CubeSat (https://www.vzlusat2.cz/en/).

The data acquisition was performed by GRB detector unit no. 1 and the 
marginal detection shows the peak time 2022-12-02 21:42:03 UTC. The T90 
duration was measured to be 20 s with the light curve resolution of 1 s. 
The significance during T90 reaches 5.4 sigma.

The light curve obtained by VZLUSAT-2 is available here:

GRB detectors on VZLUSAT-2 are a demonstration payload for a future 
CubeSats constellation (Werner et al. Proc. SPIE 2018). Two GRB modules 
of VZLUSAT-2 are placed in a perpendicular manner and each consists of a 
75 x 75 x 5 mm3 CsI scintillator read out by a SiPM array, covering the 
energy range from ~30 keV to ~1000 keV. VZLUSAT-2 was launched on 2022 
January 13 from Cape Canaveral.
