TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 13455 SUBJECT: GRB 120712A: Swift-BAT refined analysis DATE: 12/07/12 20:14:07 GMT FROM: Scott Barthelmy at NASA/GSFC S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), W. H. Baumgartner (GSFC/UMBC), J. R. Cummings (GSFC/UMBC), N. Gehrels (GSFC), H. A. Krimm (GSFC/USRA), C. B. Markwardt (GSFC), M. J. Page (UCL-MSSL), D. M. Palmer (LANL), T. Sakamoto (GSFC/UMBC), M. Stamatikos (OSU), J. Tueller (GSFC), T. N. Ukwatta (MSU) (i.e. the Swift-BAT team): Using the data set from T-120 to T+254 sec from recent telemetry downlinks, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 120712A (trigger #526351) (Page, et al., GCN Circ. 13454). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 169.598, -20.051 deg, which is RA(J2000) = 11h 18m 23.6s Dec(J2000) = -20d 03' 02.9" with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 55%. The mask-weighted light curve shows two main overlapping peaks starting at ~T-5 sec, peaking at ~T+0 and ~T+8 sec, and ending at ~T+20 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is 14.7 +- 3.3 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-4.57 to T+16.53 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.36 +- 0.08. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 1.8 +- 0.1 x 10^-6 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+7.51 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 2.4 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
