Giommi, C. Pittori, (ASDC) and L. Salotti (ASI), on behalf of the AGILE
Team, report:
"A quick look analysis of the AGILE GRID data of GRB 080514B (Rapisarda et
al. GCN 7715) shows a possible detection at energies E>50 MeV at a
position consistent with the SuperAGILE-IPN localization.
We have requested a ToO observation of the SuperAGILE-IPN error box with
the Swift satellite. We encourage follow-up observations at other
wavelengths."
