Using the data set from T-60 to T+243 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 110318B (trigger #449549)
(Margutti, et al., GCN Circ. 11799). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 211.691, -51.577 deg, which is
RA(J2000) = 14h 06m 45.9s
Dec(J2000) = -51d 34' 35.7"
with an uncertainty of 1.7 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 85%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows a single peak starting at ~T-2 sec,
peaking at ~T+1 sec, and ending at ~T+5 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is
4.8 +- 0.6 sec (estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T-1.7 to T+3.7 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
1.09 +- 0.17. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 2.9 +- 0.3 x 10^-7 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+0.76 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 0.7 +- 0.1 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
