TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 6344 SUBJECT: Konus-Wind observation of GRB 070420 DATE: 07/04/23 15:22:20 GMT FROM: Valentin Pal'shin at Ioffe Inst S. Golenetskii, R.Aptekar, E. Mazets, V. Pal'shin, D. Frederiks, and T. Cline on behalf of the Konus-Wind team report: The long GRB 070420 (Stamatikos et al., GCN 6330; Parsons et al., GCN 6342), triggered Konus-Wind at T0=22693.706 s UT (06:18:13.706). The burst started at T-T0 ~-50 s and had a duration of ~120 s. As observed by Konus-Wind the burst had a fluence of 2.64(-0.88, +0.11)x10^-5 erg/cm2, and a 256-ms peak flux measured from T0-0.144 s 1.28(-0.29, +0.19)x10^-6 erg/cm2/s (both in the 20 keV - 1 MeV energy range). The spectrum of the most intense part integrated from T0 to T0+16.640 s is well fitted (in the 20 keV - 1 MeV range) by a power law with exponential cutoff model: dN/dE ~ E^(-alpha) * exp(-(2-alpha)*E/Ep) with alpha = 1.08(-0.13, +0.12) and Ep = 167(-16, +20) keV (chi2 = 40/52 dof). The fluence of this part is 1.06(-0.19, +0.04)x10^5 erg/cm2. The spectrum integrated from T0 to T0+65.792 s is well fitted (in the 20 keV - 1 MeV range) by a power law with exponential cutoff model with alpha = 1.23(-0.18, +0.17) and Ep = 147(-19, +29) keV (chi2 = 54/52 dof). All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level. The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at http://www.ioffe.rssi.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB070420_T22693/
