Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlinks,
we report further analysis of BAT short GRB 160411A (trigger #682339)
(Page, et al., GCN Circ. 19279). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 349.370, -40.258 deg, which is
RA(J2000) = 23h 17m 28.8s
Dec(J2000) = -40d 15' 30.3"
with an uncertainty of 2.4 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 27%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows two overlapping peaks starting at
~T+0.0 and ending at ~T+0.5 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is 0.36 +- 0.08 sec
(estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T+0.06 to T+0.46 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
1.43 +- 0.28. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 8.0 +- 1.8 x 10^-8 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T-0.24 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 1.5 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
