behalf of the HETE GRB team, report:
Ulysses, Mars Odyssey-GRS, Konus-Wind, and HETE-FREGATE (H2413)
observed this GRB at 72772 seconds. As observed by Ulysses, it had a
duration of approximately 20 seconds, a 25-100 keV fluence of
approximately 1.1E-05 erg/cm2, and a peak flux of approximately
1.3E-06 erg/cm2 s over 0.25 seconds.
We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose
approximate area is 50 sq. arcmin. and whose coordinates are:
RA(2000) DEC(2000)
ERROR BOX CENTER: 21 h 29 m 19.34 s 51 o 55 ' 42.00 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 1: 21 h 27 m 49.13 s 51 o 47 ' 27.48 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 2: 21 h 27 m 18.57 s 51 o 46 ' 27.06 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 3: 21 h 31 m 22.08 s 52 o 4 ' 55.20 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 4: 21 h 30 m 50.76 s 52 o 3 ' 55.67 "
For technical reasons related to the transmission of the
MO data, this triangulation requires confirmation, which we
will attempt to provide as soon as possible.
This error box may be improved.

Ulysses, Mars Odyssey (HEND and GRS), HETE-FREGATE, and Konus-Wind
observed this GRB (GCN 1648). We have confirmed the error box given in
GCN 1648 and reduced it to an ~ 20. sq. arcmin. error box fully
contained within the original one. Its coordinates are:
RA(2000) DEC(2000)
ERROR BOX CENTER: 21 h 29 m 10.92 s 51 o 55 ' 0.43 "
ERROR BOX CORNER 1: 21 h 28 m 45.12 s 51 o 52 ' 6.48 "

ERROR BOX CORNER 4: 21 h 29 m 36.82 s 51 o 57 ' 54.33 "
This error box may be improved.
