Using the data set from T-240 to T+700 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 180205A (trigger #808625)
(Evans et al., GCN Circ. 22381). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 126.819, 11.536 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 08h 27m 16.5s
Dec(J2000) = +11d 32' 11.1"
with an uncertainty of 1.1 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 50%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts
at ~T-7 s and ends at ~T+11 s. The two major peaks occur at ~T-5 s
and ~T0 s, respectively. T90 (15-350 keV) is 15.5 +- 3.1 sec (estimated
error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T-7.04 to T+10.87 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
2.04 +- 0.13. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 1.0 +- 0.1 x 10^-6 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T-0.20 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 3.4 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
