K. Hurley, on behalf of the Ulysses GRB team, T. Cline, on behalf
of the NEAR GRB team, and C. Kouveliotou, on behalf of the BATSE
GRB team, report:
We have obtained a ~24 sq. arcmin. (3 sigma) Ulysses-BATSE-NEAR
error box for GRB991216 ((BATSE 7906: GCN 463, GCN 502). The
corners of the box are:
RA(2000) Decl.(2000)
5 h 9 m 34 s 11 o 16 ' 41 "
5 h 9 m 03 s 11 o 03 ' 54 "
5 h 9 m 52 s 11 o 27 ' 06 "
5 h 9 m 21 s 11 o 14 ' 40 "
This box includes the optical transient (GCN 472), and further
refinements to it are possible. Maps of this box and the earlier
SAX-Ulysses annulus (GCN 472) may be found at
