TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 9775 SUBJECT: GRB 090812 Swift-BAT Refined Analysis DATE: 09/08/12 15:09:27 GMT FROM: Michael Stamatikos at OSU/GSFC W. H. Baumgartner (GSFC/UMBC), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), J. R. Cummings (GSFC/UMBC), E. E. Fenimore (LANL), N. Gehrels (GSFC), H. A. Krimm (GSFC/USRA), C. B. Markwardt (GSFC/UMD), D. M. Palmer (LANL), A. M. Parsons (GSFC), T. Sakamoto (GSFC/UMBC), M. Stamatikos (OSU/NASA/GSFC), J. Tueller (GSFC), T. N. Ukwatta (GWU) on behalf of the Swift-BAT team: Using the data set from T-240 to T+962 sec from the recent telemetry downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 090812 (trigger #359711) (Stamatikos, et al., GCN Circ. 9768). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 353.200, -10.609 deg which is RA(J2000) = 23h 32m 47.9s Dec(J2000) = -10d 36' 34.1" with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 78%. The burst starts at ~T-4 sec and ends at ~T+120 sec, with 3 peaks at ~T+5 sec, ~T+27 sec and ~T+55 sec, respectively. T90 (15-350 keV) is 66.7 +- 14.7 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-5.4 to T+113.9 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.24 +- 0.05. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 5.8 +- 0.2 x 10^-06 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+26.82 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 3.6 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. The results of the batgrbproduct analysis are available at http://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/notices_s/359711/BA/.
