report:
The short-duration GRB 250814C
(SVOM-GRM detection: Wang et al., GCN 41385)
was detected by Konus-Wind, SVOM (GRM), Swift (BAT),
and Mars-Odyssey (HEND) at about 12263 s UT (03:24:23).
The burst was outside the coded field of view of the BAT.
We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box
whose coordinates are:
---------------------------------------------
RA(2000), deg Dec(2000), deg
---------------------------------------------
Center:
164.655 (10h 58m 37s) +47.526 (+47d 31' 35")
Corners:
164.814 (10h 59m 15s) +47.549 (+47d 32' 56")
164.789 (10h 59m 09s) +47.597 (+47d 35' 48")
164.497 (10h 57m 59s) +47.504 (+47d 30' 13")
164.521 (10h 58m 05s) +47.456 (+47d 27' 21")
---------------------------------------------
The error box area is 39 sq. arcmin, and its maximum
dimension is 14 arcmin (the minimum one is 3 arcmin).
The Sun distance was 37 deg.
A triangulation map and HEALPix FITS file are posted at
http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB250814_T12259/IPN/
The HEALPix triangulation map is the multi-order HEALPix in units of
probability density.
The Konus-Wind time history and spectrum will be given
in a forthcoming GCN Circular.
