Using the data set from T-240 to T+962 sec from recent telemetry downlinks,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 120106A (trigger #511235)
(Immler, et al., GCN Circ. 12810). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 66.129, 64.050 deg, which is
RA(J2000) = 04h 24m 30.9s
Dec(J2000) = +64d 03' 00.0"
with an uncertainty of 1.3 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 75%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows the first peak starting at ~T-7 sec,
peaking at ~T+1 sec, and ending at ~T+13 sec. There is a second, weaker peak
starting at ~T+50 sec and ending at ~T+65 (possibly T+85) sec.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 61.6 +- 4.1 sec (estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T-6.24 to T+60.24 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
1.53 +- 0.17. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 9.7 +- 1.1 x 10^-7 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+0.46 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 1.5 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
