GCN Circular 7679

Subject
GRB 080503: Late-time Optical rebrightening (possible mini-SN) - correction
Date
2008-05-05T05:00:21Z (16 years ago)
From
Daniel Perley at U.C. Berkeley <dperley@astro.berkeley.edu>
D. A. Perley, J. S. Bloom (UC Berkeley), and J. X. Prochaska (UCO/Lick)
report:

The line that states:

"If this source is associated with GRB 080319B this would be extremely 
unusual behavior for a short gamma-ray burst."

Should of course read:

"If this source is associated with GRB 080503 this would be extremely 
unusual behavior for a short gamma-ray burst."

We apologize for any confusion, and thank R. Chornock for pointing out 
the error.
