TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 19784 SUBJECT: IPN Triangulation of GRB 160806A DATE: 16/08/09 12:59:49 GMT FROM: Anna Kozlova at Ioffe Institute K. Hurley, on behalf of the IPN, I. G. Mitrofanov, D. Golovin, M. L. Litvak, and A. B. Sanin, on behalf of the HEND-Odyssey GRB team, A. Kozlova, S. Golenetskii, R. Aptekar, D. Frederiks, D. Svinkin, and T. Cline on behalf of the Konus-Wind team, V. Connaughton, M. S. Briggs, C. Meegan, V. Pelassa, and A. Goldstein, on behalf of the Fermi GBM team, S. Barthelmy, J. Cummings, N. Gehrels, H. Krimm, and D. Palmer, on behalf of the Swift-BAT team, A. von Kienlin, X. Zhang, A. Rau, V. Savchenko, E. Bozzo, and C. Ferrigno, on behalf of the INTEGRAL SPI-ACS GRB team, and W. Boynton, C. Fellows, K. Harshman, H. Enos, and R. Starr, on behalf of the GRS-Odyssey GRB team, report: A short-duration GRB 160806A has been detected by Fermi (GBM), Konus-Wind, INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS), Mars-Odyssey (HEND), and Swift (BAT) at about 50460 s UT (14:01:00). The burst was outside the coded field of view of the BAT. We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose coordinates are: --------------------------------------------- RA(2000), deg Dec(2000), deg --------------------------------------------- Center: 274.477 (18h 17m 54s) +10.607 (+10d 36' 25") Corners: 275.105 (18h 20m 25s) +10.412 (+10d 24' 42") 274.010 (18h 16m 02s) +11.481 (+11d 28' 52") 273.846 (18h 15m 23s) +10.795 (+10d 47' 42") 274.941 (18h 19m 46s) +9.712 ( +9d 42' 45") --------------------------------------------- The error box area is 3308 sq. arcmin, and its maximum dimension is 1.99 deg (the minimum one is 36 arcmin). The Sun distance was about 130 deg. This box may be improved. A triangulation map is posted at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB160806_T50460/IPN/ The Konus-Wind time history and spectrum will be given in a forthcoming GCN Circular.
