triggered Konus-Wind at T0=30902.290 s UT (08:35:02.290).

The burst light curve shows two peaks in the time
interval from ~T0-0.1 s to ~T0+0.3 s.

The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at
http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB130912_T30902/

As observed by Konus-Wind, the burst
had a fluence of (1.6 � 0.2)x10-6 erg/cm2,
and a 16-ms peak flux, measured from T0-0.032,
of (2.2 � 0.6)x10-5 erg/cm2/s
(both in the 20 keV - 10 MeV energy range).

The 3-channel time-integrated spectrum
(measured from T0-0.128 to T0+0.256 s)
can be modeled, in the 25 keV - 1.5 MeV range,
by the cutoff power law with the following model parameters:
the photon index alpha = -0.96 � 0.08,
and the peak energy Ep = 580 � 65 keV.

The 3-channel spectrum at the maximum count rate
(measured from T0-0.128 to T0+0.256 s)
can be modeled, in the 25 keV - 1.5 MeV range,
by the cutoff power law with the following model parameters:
the photon index alpha = -1.07 � 0.12,
and the peak energy Ep = 1020 � 320 keV.

All the quoted results are preliminary.
