M. Ulanov, and T. Cline, on behalf of the Konus-Wind team, report:

The long GRB 220826A (Swift detection: Caputo et al., GCN 32484;
Fermi GBM observation: Veres & Meegan, GCN 32495)
was detected by Konus-Wind (KW) in the waiting mode.

A Bayesian block analysis of the KW waiting mode data in the 20-400 keV band
reveals a >10 sigma count rate increase in the interval
from T0-0.525 s to T0+37.747 s where T0 = T0(BAT) = 11:55:21.742 UT.

The KW light curve of this burst is available
at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB220826A/

Modeling a time-integrated spectrum of the burst
by a power law with exponential cutoff (CPL) model
dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E*(2+alpha)/Ep)
yields alpha = -0.48 (-0.22, + 0.25) and Ep = 113(-4,+4) keV.
In the 10 keV -10 MeV band, standard for the KW analysis,
the burst fluence is (2.53 �� 0.29)x10^-6 erg/cm^2
and the 2.944 s peak energy flux is (2.86 �� 0.18)x10^-7 erg/cm^2/s.

All the quoted errors are estimated at the 68% confidence level.
All the presented results are preliminary.
