Using the data set from T-240 to T+962 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 200925B (trigger #997453)
(Cenko, et al., GCN Circ. 28499). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 246.892, 78.393 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 16h 27m 34.1s
Dec(J2000) = +78d 23' 33.5"
with an uncertainty of 1.2 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 50%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows two peaks, the first beginning ~T-2 sec,
peaking at T+5 sec, and decaying by T+12 sec. The second, weaker, peak runs
from T+16 to T+22 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is 18.25 +- 0.97 sec (estimated error
including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T+0.20 to T+19.59 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
2.01 +- 0.14. 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+4.38 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 3.0 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
