report:
Ulysses, INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS), Mars Odyssey (HEND and GRS), and
Konus-Wind observed this GRB at 85670 seconds. As observed by
Ulysses, it had a duration of approximately 10 seconds, a 25-100 keV
fluence of approximately 1.5E-06 erg/cm2, and a peak flux of
approximately 9.7E-07 erg/cm2 s over 0.25 seconds.
We have triangulated it to two alternate, preliminary, 3 sigma error
boxes each with approximate area 1020 square arcminutes, whose
coordinates are:
RA(2000) DEC(2000)
ERROR BOX CENTER: 12 h 6 m 29.49 s -36 o 17 ' 27.67 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 1: 12 h 7 m 17.26 s -36 o 14 ' 49.41 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 2: 11 h 53 m 34.30 s -37 o 28 ' 50.84 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 3: 12 h 18 m 10.77 s -35 o 3 ' 43.37 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 4: 12 h 5 m 41.49 s -36 o 20 ' 5.16 "
OR
ERROR BOX CENTER: 6 h 28 m 35.36 s -19 o 38 ' 41.14 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 5: 6 h 28 m 0.96 s -19 o 32 ' 51.16 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 6: 6 h 37 m 4.07 s -21 o 40 ' 59.82 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 7: 6 h 20 m 56.12 s -17 o 40 ' 50.73 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 8: 6 h 29 m 9.93 s -19 o 44 ' 31.80 "
There is a chance that the ambiguity can be resolved by further processing.
These error boxes may be improved.
