J. R. Cummings reports on behalf of the Swift-BAT team:
The IPN reported a burst at 20:06:56. It occurred near the end of a Swift
pointing on top of an approach to the SAA. No source was found onboard.
In ground analysis a significant source was found at RA, Dec 147.423, 71.945,
which is:
RA (J2000) 09h 49m 41.5s
Dec (J2000) 71d 56' 41"
with an estimated 90% uncertainty radius of 3 arcmin.
The burst was a single peak about 20 seconds long.
The spectrum during the peak 10 seconds of the burst is best fit by a
simple power law function with a photon index of 1.0 � 0.3. The fluence
from 15-150 keV in the 10 seconds was (1.6 � 0.5) x 10^-7 ergs/cm^2.
Errors quoted are 68% confidence.
A Swift TOO has been requested.
