We report further analysis of BAT GRB 131001A (Cummings, GCN Circ. 15281
Not found
 
 
).
The BAT ground-calculated position is RA, Dec = 8.304, 25.557 deg which is
    RA(J2000)  =  00h 33m 13.0s
    Dec(J2000) = +25d 33' 26"
with an uncertainty of 1.6 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 50%.
  
The mask-weighted light curve shows a single FRED peak.  T90 (15-350 keV) is
4.9 +- 0.3 sec (estimated error including systematics).
  
The time-averaged spectrum from T0 to T+5 sec is best fit by a power law
with an exponential cutoff.  This fit gives a photon index 0.8 +- 0.6,
and Epeak of 55 +- 14 keV (chi squared 55.6 for 56 d.o.f.).  For this
model the total fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 4.9 +- 0.6 x 10^-7 erg/cm2
and the 1-sec peak flux measured from T+5.49 sec in the 15-150 keV band is
2.57 +- 0.25 ph/cm2/sec.  A fit to a simple power law gives a photon index
of 1.81 +- 0.12 (chi squared 66.2 for 57 d.o.f.).  All the quoted errors are
at the 90% confidence level.
  
Since this burst was ground-detected the usual automated results of the
batgrbproduct analysis are not available.
