At 10:05:14 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
located GRB 241010 ***A*** (trigger=1259578). Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
The BAT on-board calculated location is
RA, Dec 153.365, +11.544 which is
RA(J2000) = 10h 13m 28s
Dec(J2000) = +11d 32' 38"
with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including
systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve showed a [**double-peaked**]
structure with a duration of about TTT sec. The peak count rate
was ~12442 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~0 sec after the trigger.
