Tueller (GSFC)\non behalf of the Swift-BAT team:\n\nAt 15:44:37 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and\nlocated on-board GRB 050318.  The spacecraft did not automatically slew\nto the burst location because of an observing constraint.  The orbit is such\nthat we just started the approximate 6-hour gap in telemetry downlink orbits,\nso it will be ~7 hours before we get the full data set on this burst\nand can say anything more than what is available from the real-time\nTDRSS messages.\n\nUsing the time interval of the trigger of the burst (0.5 sec),\nthe ground-calculated location is RA,Dec 49.651,-46.392 (J2000)\nwith an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, including a systematic uncertainty,\n90% containment).  The burst was 22 degrees off the BAT boresight (75% coding).\n\nThe burst lightcurve has 2 peaks.  The first peak is ~3 sec long with a peak\ncount rate of 4000 cnts/sec.  The second peak starts at T+25 and lasts ~15 sec\nwith a peak rate of 4500 cnts/sec (15-350 keV) .",
