The ultra-long GRB 200612A
(Swift-BAT detection Sonbas et al., GCN 27915;
MASTER OT detection: Lipunov et al., GCN 27917)
was detected by Konus-Wind in the waiting mode.
The burst light curve shows four emission episodes
in the interval from ~T0(BAT) s to ~T0(BAT)+1020 s.
The K-W light curve of this burst is available at
http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB200612A/
As observed by Konus-Wind, the burst had a fluence of
4.08(-0.34,+1.04)x10^-5 erg/cm2 and a 2.944-s peak flux,
measured from ~T0(BAT)+478.8 s, of 2.75(-0.62,+0.85)x10^-7 erg/cm2/s
(both in the 20 - 1500 keV energy band).
The K-W 3-channel time-integrated spectrum
(from ~T0(BAT) s to ~T0(BAT)+1020 s)
is well described by a cutoff power-law model
with alpha = -1.0(-0.2,+0.3) and Ep= 253(-65,+95) keV.
All the quoted errors are estimated at the 1 sigma confidence level.
All the presented results are preliminary.
