TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 7114 SUBJECT: Konus-Wind and Konus-A observations of GRB 071117 DATE: 07/11/19 15:11:42 GMT FROM: Valentin Pal'shin at Ioffe Inst S. Golenetskii, R.Aptekar, E. Mazets, V. Pal'shin, D. Frederiks, P. Oleynik, M. Ulanov and T. Cline on behalf of the Konus-Wind and Konus-A teams report: The GRB 071117 (Swift-BAT trigger #296805: Ukwatta et al., GCN 7098; Krimm et al., GCN 7102) triggered Konus-Wind at T0=53404.535 s UT (14:50:04.535). This burst also triggered Konus-A at T0=53408.587 s UT (14:50:08.587). The Konus-Wind light curve shows a single FRED-like pulse with a duration of ~5 s. As observed by Konus-Wind the burst had a fluence of 5.84(-2.40, +0.30)x10^-6 erg/cm2, and a 64-ms peak flux measured from T0+0.160 s of 6.66(-2.95, +1.13)x10^-6 erg/cm2/s (both in the 20 keV - 1 MeV energy range). The burst shows strong hard-to-soft spectral evolution. The time-integrated spectrum of the burst (from T0 to T0+8.448 s) is well fitted (in the 20 keV - 1 MeV range) by a power law with exponential cutoff model: dN/dE ~ E^(-alpha)*exp(-E*(2-alpha)/Ep) with alpha = 1.53(-0.16, +0.15) and Ep = 278 (-79, +236) keV (chi2 = 37.5/52 dof). All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at http://www.ioffe.rssi.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB071117_T53404/
