TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 11169 SUBJECT: GRB 100901A: Swift-BAT refined analysis DATE: 10/09/02 01:02:07 GMT FROM: Scott Barthelmy at NASA/GSFC T. Sakamoto (GSFC/UMBC), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), W. H. Baumgartner (GSFC/UMBC), J. R. Cummings (GSFC/UMBC), N. Gehrels (GSFC), H. A. Krimm (GSFC/USRA), S. Immler (CRESST/GSFC/UMD), C. B. Markwardt (GSFC/UMD), D. M. Palmer (LANL), M. Stamatikos (OSU), J. Tueller (GSFC), T. N. Ukwatta (GWU) (i.e. the Swift-BAT team): Using the data set from T-240 to T+663 sec from recent telemetry downlinks, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 100901A (trigger #433065) (Immler, et al., GCN Circ. 11159). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 27.252, 22.751 deg, which is RA(J2000) = 01h 49m 00.5s Dec(J2000) = +22d 45' 02.9" with an uncertainty of 3.5 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 40%. The mask-weighted light curve shows two main peaks. The first starts at ~T-5 sec, peaks at ~T+5 sec, and ends at ~T+10 sec. The second starts at ~T+300 sec, peaks at ~T+390, and ends at ~T+490 sec. We note that the burst location went out of the BAT FoV at T+650 sec during a slew due to an observing constraint. T90 (15-350 keV) is 439 +- 33 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T-2.4 to T+471.8 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 1.52 +- 0.21. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 2.1 +- 0.3 x 10^-6 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T-1.81 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 0.8 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
