A. von Kienlin, G. Lichti, and A. Rau, on behalf of the
INTEGRAL SPI-ACS GRB team, report:
Ulysses, Mars Odyssey (HEND and GRS), HETE-FREGATE (H2662), INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS),
and Konus-Wind observed this GRB at 08248 seconds. As observed by
Ulysses, it had a duration of approximately 5 seconds, a 25-100 keV
fluence of approximately 4.3E-06 erg/cm2, and a peak flux of
approximately 1.0E-06 erg/cm2 s over 0.25 seconds.
We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose
approximate area is 36 sq. arcmin. and whose coordinates are:
RA(2000) DEC(2000)
ERROR BOX CENTER: 16 h 33 m 06.33 s -24 o 09 ' 08.86 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 1: 16 h 33 m 06.62 s -24 o 07 ' 34.35 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 2: 16 h 33 m 58.27 s -23 o 52 ' 17.70 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 3: 16 h 32 m 14.93 s -24 o 25 ' 49.05 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 4: 16 h 33 m 06.05 s -24 o 10 ' 43.30 "
This error box may be improved.
