Using the data set from T-240 to T+962 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 180329B (trigger #819490)
(Racusin et al., GCN Circ. 22558
Not found
 
 
).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 82.905, -23.694 deg which is
  RA(J2000)  =  05h 31m 37.2s
  Dec(J2000) = -23d 41' 39.8"
with an uncertainty of 1.8 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 15%.

The mask-weighted light curve shows a triple-peaked structure, with the first peak
running from T-10 to T+40 sec, and the second peak from T+130 to T+160 sec.
This is followed by a much weaker, softer peak from T+160 to T+280 sec.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 210.0 +- 44.0 sec (estimated error including systematics).

The time-averaged spectrum from T-9.91 to T+230.39 sec is best fit by a power law
with an exponential cutoff.  This fit gives a photon index 0.97 +- 0.56,
and Epeak of 48.6 +- 9.1 keV (chi squared 54.64 for 56 d.o.f.).  For this
model the total fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 3.3 +- 0.3 x 10^-6 erg/cm2
and the 1-sec peak flux measured from T+1.56 sec in the 15-150 keV band is
1.4 +- 0.4 ph/cm2/sec.  A fit to a simple power law gives a photon index
of 1.93 +- 0.12 (chi squared 65.32 for 57 d.o.f.).  All the quoted errors
are at the 90% confidence level.
