K. Hurley, on behalf of the Ulysses GRB team, Scott Barthelmy,
on behalf of the GCN team, and T. Cline, on behalf of the NEAR
GRB team, report:
NEAR observed BATSE trigger #7766, leading to a preliminary error
box (as opposed to just the annulus reported in GCN 410) for this
burst, whose corners are at:
RA(2000) Decl.(2000)
07 h 35 m 05 s 74o 39' 40"
07 h 05 m 51 s 72o 31' 43"
07 h 19 m 06 s 73o 47' 57"
06 h 48 m 19 s 71o 02' 41"
This error box is located roughly between the COMPTEL and LOCBURST
positions. A map may be found at ssl.berkeley.edu/ipn3/990915/. This
error box will be refined considerably when the final data become
available.
