Using the data set from T-240 to T+842 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 250331B (trigger #1299965)
(Cenko, et al., GCN Circ. 39958). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 71.377, 43.794 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 04h 45m 30.4s
Dec(J2000) = +43d 47' 39.1"
with an uncertainty of 2.6 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 55%.
The mask-weighted light curve displays a single dim pulse.
The T90 (15-350 keV) is 3.95 +- 0.77 sec (estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T-0.72 to T+3.76 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
2.61 +- 0.38. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 1.5 +- 0.3 x 10^-07 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+1.28 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 0.9 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
