Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry
downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 190324A (trigger #894718)
(LaPorte et al., GCN Circ. 23993
Not found
 
 
).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 49.603, -47.212 deg which is
   RA(J2000)  =  03h 18m 24.8s
   Dec(J2000) = -47d 12' 42.4"
with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 56%.

The mask-weighted light curve shows a precursor from ~T0 to ~T+5 s, and a
bright
multi-peaked structure that starts at ~T+18 s and ends at ~T+40 s. In
addition,
there are some weak emission lasting till ~T+80 s. T90 (15-350 keV)
is 28.4 +- 11.6 sec (estimated error including systematics).

The time-averaged spectrum from T+0.09 to T+83.30 sec is best fit by a
simple
power-law model.  The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
1.46 +- 0.06.  The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 7.2 +- 0.2 x 10^-6
erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+23.74 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 11.9 +- 0.5 ph/cm2/sec.  All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
