Using the data set from T-240 to T+962 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 140103A (trigger #582773)
(Mangano, et al., GCN Circ. 15656). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 232.114, 37.752 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 15h 28m 27.2s
Dec(J2000) = +37d 45' 08.4"
with an uncertainty of 1.7 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 48%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows two peaks. The first weak peak starts
at ~T-13 sec, peaks at ~T-11 sec and ends at ~T-6 sec. The second peak starts
at ~T-4 sec, peaks at ~T+1 sec and ends at ~T+9 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is
17.3 +- 1.9 sec (estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T-12.52 to T+6.94 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
2.6 +- 0.2. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 6.0 +- 0.7 x 10^-7 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+0.39 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 2.1 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
