TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 18865 SUBJECT: Konus-Wind observation of GRB 160111A DATE: 16/01/14 14:05:13 GMT FROM: Dmitry Frederiks at Ioffe Institute S. Golenetskii, R.Aptekar, D. Frederiks, P. Oleynik, M. Ulanov, D. Svinkin, A. Tsvetkova, A.Lysenko, A. Kozlova and T. Cline, on behalf of the Konus-Wind team, report: The short-duration, hard-spectrum GRB 160111A (IPN triangulation: Golenetskii et al., GCN 18864) triggered Konus-Wind at 26526.639 s UT (07:22:06.639). The KW light curve shows a single pulse with a duration of ~0.3 s. The emission is visible up to ~5 MeV. The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB160111_T26526/ As observed by Konus-Wind, the burst had a fluence of 2.4(-0.8,+1.0)x10^-6 erg/cm2, and a 16-ms peak flux, measured from T0, of 9.7(-3.1,+4.1)x10^-6 erg/cm2/s (both in the 20 keV - 10 MeV energy range). The spectrum of the burst (measured from T0 to T0+0.128 s) is best fit in the 20 keV - 10 MeV range by the cutoff power law with the following model parameters: the photon index alpha = -0.06(-0.55,+0.84), and the peak energy Ep = 682(-222,+367) keV, chi2 = 15.6/19 dof. Fitting this spectrum with the GRB (Band) function yields the following model parameters: the low-energy photon index alpha = -0.13 (-0.11,+0.08), the high energy photon index beta < -2.35 (upper limit), the peak energy Ep = 725 (-267, +321) keV, chi2 = 15.7/18 dof. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. All the quoted values are preliminary.
