Updated Astrometry for the IR Counterpart of GRB990705
E. Palazzi, N. Masetti, and E. Pian (ITESRE-CNR, Bologna) report:
"We have carefully checked the astrometry of the NTT+SOFI image taken on
July 5.94 UT (Palazzi et al. GCN # 377), and have found that the correct
coordinates of the IR transient are
RA (2000) = 05 09 54.5,
Dec (2000) = -72 07 53
The astrometric uncertainty is 0".5.
The NTT+SOFI images relative to the IR transient detection (GCN # 377) can
