TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 13917 SUBJECT: GRB 121028A: Swift-BAT refined analysis DATE: 12/10/29 00:53:25 GMT FROM: Scott Barthelmy at NASA/GSFC T. Sakamoto (GSFC/UMBC), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), W.

Ukwatta (GWU) (i.e. the Swift-BAT team): Using the data set from T-61 to T+242 sec from recent telemetry downlinks, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 121028A (trigger #536897) (Starling, et al., GCN Circ. 13913). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 271.903, -2.298 deg, which is RA(J2000) = 18h 07m 36.7s Dec(J2000) = -02d 17' 52.1" with an uncertainty of 1.5 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 50%. The mask-weighted light curve shows a single pulse starting at ~T-0.9 sec, peaking at ~T+2 sec, and ending ~T+4 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is 3.8 +- 0.7 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-0.8 to T+3.8 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.79 +- 0.17. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 3.7 +- 0.4 x 10^-7 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T-0.01 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 1.9 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
