From 2016 January, the light curve plots support interactive zooming and exploring. See the jsPlot documentation for details.
Also, from the same date, the first plot on this page is the observed flux
in the native band of each instrument (including UVOT where available).

Caveats
If the answer to any of the following is "yes," you should investigate further before
accepting the light curves. See the documentation for details.
Is Γ discontinuous between BAT and XRT?
Is the BAT spectral fit a cut-off power law?
Are the Γ values extreme?
Are the errors on Γ/CF large?
Do all the BAT or XRT bins have identically Γ/CF bins?
Close .

The BAT spectrum was fitted with a cut-off power-law. The cutoff energy was 54.6 keV and was not allowed to evolve. See caveats for details.
All data uses absorption NH =0.031 × 1022 cm-2 at z=0 and 0.32 × 1022 cm-2 at z=0.971. (Source: the late-time spectrum from the XRT spectrum repository ).

The fit to the T90 spectrum was used to create the plots in this section. T90 was 4.4, from 0.2 to 4.6 The spectral fit used was a cut-off power-law with photon index: 1.60 and cut-off energy 54.6 keV.
Count-rate light curves are available from GCN .
