Using the data set from T-240 to T+962 sec from the recent telemetry
downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 081104 (trigger #333666)
(Parsons, et al., GCN Circ. 8473). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 100.500, -54.722 deg which is
RA(J2000) = 06h 42m 00.0s
Dec(J2000) = -54d 43' 17.4"
with an uncertainty of 1.3 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 32%.
The BAT mask-weighted light curve shows a single FRED peak.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 59.1 +- 13.9 sec (estimated error including
systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T-23.5 to T+51.2 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
2.00 +- 0.14. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 2.0 +- 0.2 x 10^-06
erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+13.54 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 1.0 +- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
