Subject
IPN triangulation of GRB030709 (annulus)

From

K. Hurley and T. Cline, on behalf of the Ulysses and Konus GRB teams,
and

E. Mazets and S. Golenetskii, on behalf of the Konus-Wind GRB team,
report:

Ulysses, and Konus-Wind  observed this GRB at 38245 seconds.  As
observed by Ulysses, it had a duration of approximately 30 seconds, a
25-100 keV fluence of approximately  1.8E-05 erg/cm2, and a peak flux
of approximately  1.3E-06 erg/cm2 s over 0.50 seconds.

We have triangulated it to a preliminary annulus centered  at RA,
Decl(2000)= 155.101,  28.225 degrees, whose radius is 64.127 +/-  0.030
degrees (3 sigma).

This annulus may be constrained and/or improved.

It is not known at this point whether this event was observed by Mars
Odyssey, and thus whether a small error box can be derived for it.
