Using the data set from T-240 to T+537 sec from the recent telemetry
downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 210102C (trigger #1015728)
(Troja et al., GCN Circ. 29226). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 235.747, -37.231 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 15h 42m 59.2s
Dec(J2000) = -37d 13' 52.2"
with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 76%.
The mask-weighted light curve shows a double-peaked structure. The first
peak starts at ~T-2 s, peaks at ~T0, and ends at ~T+8 s. The second peak
starts at ~T+55 s, peaks at ~T+67 s, and ends at ~T+100 s. T90 (15-350 keV)
is 87.25 +- 4.97 sec (estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T-2.07 to T+97.42 sec is best fit by
a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged
spectrum is 1.87 +- 0.08. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is
3.9 +- 0.2 x 10^-6 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from
T+66.72 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 4.4 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the
quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
