Sbarufatti (INAF-OAB/INAF-IASFPA)\nreport on behalf of the Swift-XRT team:\n\nWe have analysed 7.0 ks of XRT data for GRB 110106A (Mangano  et al.\nGCN Circ. 11520), from 91 s to 17.3 ks after the  BAT trigger. The data\ncomprise 8 s in Windowed Timing (WT) mode (taken while Swift was\nslewing), with the remainder in Photon Counting (PC) mode. The enhanced\nXRT position for this burst was given by Osborne et al. (GCN. Circ\n11526).\n\nThe late-time light curve (from T0+3.5 ks) can be modelled with  a\npower-law decay with a decay index of alpha=1.2 (+0.4, -0.3).\n\nA spectrum formed from the PC mode data can be fitted with an absorbed\npower-law with a photon spectral index of 2.7 (+0.4, -0.5). The\nbest-fitting absorption column is  4.0 (+1.6, -1.4) x 10^21 cm^-2, in\nexcess of the Galactic value of 1.3 x 10^21 cm^-2 (Kalberla et al.\n2005). The counts to observed (unabsorbed) 0.3-10 keV flux conversion\nfactor deduced from this spectrum  is 3.4 x 10^-11 (1.0 x 10^-10) erg\ncm^-2 count^-1. \n\nA summary of the PC-mode spectrum is thus:\nTotal column:\t     4.0 (+1.6, -1.4) x 10^21 cm^-2\nGalactic foreground: 1.3 x 10^21 cm^-2\nExcess significance: 4.8 sigma\nPhoton index:\t     2.7 (+0.4, -0.5)\n\nThe results of the XRT-team automatic analysis are available at\nhttp://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_products/00441664.\n\nThis circular is an official product of the Swift-XRT team.",
