TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 26126 SUBJECT: Konus-Wind observation of GRB 191031D DATE: 19/11/01 11:56:53 GMT FROM: Dmitry Frederiks at Ioffe Institute D. Frederiks, S. Golenetskii, R. Aptekar, A. Lysenko, A. Ridnaia, D. Svinkin, A. Tsvetkova, M. Ulanov, and T. Cline on behalf of the Konus-Wind team, report: The short-duration GRB 191031D (Swift detection: D'Elia et al., GCN Circ. 26112; Fermi GBM detection: Mailyan & Meegan, GCN Circ. 26118; AGILE/MCAL observations: Ursi et al., GCN Circ. 26123) triggered Konus-Wind at T0=77011.324 s UT (21:23:31.324). The burst light curve shows a mult-peaked pulse which started at ~T0-0.064 s and had a total duration of ~0.35 s. The emission is seen up to ~5 MeV. As observed by Konus-Wind, the burst had a fluence of 2.72(-0.27, +0.31)x10^-6 erg/cm2, and a 16-ms peak flux, measured from T0-0.016 s, of 1.95(-0.32,+0.38)x10^-5 erg/cm2/s (both in the 20 keV - 10 MeV energy range). The time-integrated spectrum of the burst (measured from T0 to T0+0.256 s) is best fit in the 20 keV - 15 MeV range by a power law with exponential cutoff model: dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E*(2+alpha)/Ep) with alpha = -0.27(-0.17,+0.20) and Ep = 370(-46,+58) keV (chi2 = 35/39 dof). Fitting by a GRB (Band) model yields the same alpha and Ep, and an upper limit on the high energy photon index: beta < -2.6 (chi2 =35/38 dof). The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB191031_T77011/ All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. All the quoted values are preliminary.
