K. Hurley, on behalf of the Ulysses GRB team, T. Cline and E.
Mazets, on behalf of the Konus-WIND and NEAR GRB teams, and F.
Frontera, C. Guidorzi and E. Montanari, on behalf of the
BeppoSAX GRBM team, report:
Ulysses, Konus, NEAR, and SAX observed this burst at
33960 UT. As observed by Ulysses, it had a duration of
~7 s and a 25-100 keV fluence of 3.5 x 10^-6 erg/cm^2.
We have triangulated it to a preliminary error
box whose 3 sigma area is ~50 sq. arcmin. and whose coordinates
are:
RA(2000) DEC(2000)
2 h 20 m 16.13 s -14 o 50 ' 14.33 " (CENTER)
2 h 20 m 15.19 s -14 o 46 ' 56.89 " (CORNER)
2 h 20 m 43.02 s -14 o 37 ' 01.35 " (CORNER)
2 h 19 m 49.16 s -15 o 03 ' 28.23 " (CORNER)
2 h 20 m 17.07 s -14 o 53 ' 31.81 " (CORNER)
This error box can be improved.
