TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 11429 SUBJECT: GRB 101201A detected in ground analysis of BAT data DATE: 10/12/02 00:05:45 GMT FROM: Jay R. Cummings at NASA/GSFC/Swift GRB 101201A detected in ground analysis of BAT data J. R. Cummings (GSFC/UMBC/CRESST), H. A. Krimm (GSFC/USRA/CRESST), D. M. Palmer (LANL), S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC) on behalf of the Swift-BAT team At 10:01:48, Swift-BAT detected GRB 101201A (BAT triggers 439595-6, Fermi GBM 312890511). There was no source found onboard. A strong source was found in ground analysis at RA, Dec 1.955, -16.196, which is: RA (J2000) 00h 07m 49s Dec (J2000) -16d 11m 46s with an estimated uncertainty radius of 2 arcmin (90% containment). This point is 1.8 degrees from the GBM position, within the GBM error circle. It was about 3% coded. The burst was about 50 seconds long, with 3 overlapping peaks. The available BAT event-by-event data covers most of the second peak. A Swift TOO for XRT follow-up is in progress.
