Golenetskii, R.Aptekar, E. Mazets, D. Frederiks, D. Svinkin, M. Ulanov, and T. Cline on behalf of the Konus-Wind team, T. Sakamoto (AGU), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), W. Baumgartner (GSFC/UMBC), J. Cummings (GSFC/UMBC), E. Fenimore (LANL), N. Gehrels (GSFC), H. Krimm (GSFC/USRA), C. Markwardt (GSFC), D. Palmer (LANL), M. Stamatikos (OSU) and T. Ukwatta (GWU) report: We performed the Konus-Wind and the Swift/BAT joint spectral analysis of GRB 130514A (Swift/BAT trigger #555821: Sonbas et al., GCN Circ. 14632, Ukwatta et al. GCN Circ. 14636). Since the Konus-Wind observed this GRB in the waiting mode, we only have 3 channel spectral data for the Konus-Wind which cover the energy range from 20 keV to 1.2 MeV. The joint spectral analysis of the Konus-Wind and the Swift/BAT data allows us to derive the broad-band spectral parameters of this burst. The time interval of the spectral data for each instrument is chosen from T0(BAT)-5.1 to T0(BAT)+153.9 s where T0(BAT) is the trigger time of BAT at 07:13:41 UTC. This interval comprises whole burst as observed by Konus-Wind and contains 87% of the total fluence in the 15-150 keV as observed by BAT (Ukwatta et al. GCN Circ. 14636). The energy ranges which we used in the joint spectral analysis are 20-1200 keV and 14-150 keV for the Konus-Wind and the Swift/BAT respectively. The spectral data of two instruments are fitted with the spectral model multiplied by the constant factor to take into account the systematic effective area uncertainties in the response matrices of each instrument. The spectrum is well fitted with a power-law with exponential cutoff model: dN/dE ~ E^{alpha}*exp(-(2+alpha)*E/Epeak). No systematic residual from the best fit model is seen in the spectral data of each instrument. The BAT constant factor is 0.83(-0.08,+0.10) (the KW constant factor is fixed to 1). The best fit spectral parameters are: alpha = -1.44(-0.14,+0.17) and Epeak = 110(-21,+42) keV (chi2/dof = 41.9/57). The best fit spectral parameters for the GRB (Band) model fixing beta = -2.5 are: alpha = -1.44(-0.15,+0.17), and Epeak = 108(-21,+45) keV (chi2/dof = 43.6/57). The energy fluence in the 15-1200 keV band calculated by a power-law with exponential cutoff model for this 159 s interval is 1.40(-0.16,+0.21)x10^-5 erg/cm2. Assuming a photo-z of 3.6 (Schmidl, Kann, and Greiner GCN Circ. 14634) and a standard cosmology model with H_0 = 71 km/s/Mpc, Omega_M = 0.27, Omega_Lambda = 0.73, the isotropic energy release is E_iso = 4.95(-0.67,+0.85)x10^53 erg in 1 keV to 10 MeV at the GRB rest frame extrapolating the best exponential cutoff function fit. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB130514A/
