TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 17740 SUBJECT: GRB 150423A: Swift-BAT refined analysis DATE: 15/04/23 22:07:16 GMT FROM: Tilan Ukwatta at LANL T. N. Ukwatta (LANL), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), W. H. Baumgartner (GSFC/UMBC), J. R. Cummings (GSFC/UMBC), N. Gehrels (GSFC), H. A. Krimm (GSFC/USRA), A. Y. Lien (GSFC/UMBC), C. B. Markwardt (GSFC), C. Pagani (U Leicester), D. M. Palmer (LANL), T. Sakamoto (AGU), M. Stamatikos (OSU), (i.e. the Swift-BAT team): Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 150423A (trigger #638808) (Pagani, et al., GCN Circ. 17728). The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 221.601, 12.264 deg which is RA(J2000) = 14h 46m 24.2s Dec(J2000) = +12d 15' 50.6" with an uncertainty of 1.9 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment). The partial coding was 92%. BAT light curve shows a single peak starting around T+0.0 sec and ending around T+0.25 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is 0.22 +- 0.03 sec (estimated error including systematics). The time-averaged spectrum from T+0.01 to T+0.24 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 0.84 +- 0.24. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 6.3 +- 1.0 x 10^-08 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T-0.37 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 0.9 +- 0.1 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/638808/BA/
