"At 12:41:59  UT on 2008 Aug 22, the GLAST Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered
on the new Soft Gamma Repeater 0501+4516 (GRB 080822)
(GBM 080822.529 / trigger 241101720), reported by SWIFT
(Holland et al., GCN Circ. 8112, Barthelmy et al, GCN Circ. 8113
and GCN Circ. 8119).

The on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger data, is
RA = 86.2, Dec = +43.5 (J2000 degrees),(equivalent to J2000 05h 45m, +43d
30'),
with an uncertainty of 3.3 degrees (radius, 1-sigma containment, statistical

only). The true location error is 8.0 degrees for this soft, short event.

This event has a duration of about 80 ms. The spectrum in the
10 keV to 100 keV energy band is well fit by a power law function
with an index of -1.6 +/-0.1. The high temperature for an
optically thin thermal bremsstrahlung (OTTB) fit is: 71 +/-13 keV. 
These results are consistent with the trigger clearly being seen to 100 keV.

The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary."
