Information About Specially-Selected GRBs/SGRs/Transients for 1998

This page contains hyper-links to all the information there is on specially selected GRBs/SGRs/X-ray-Transients for the year 1998. This information includes: Identification (date, time, trigger number, etc), Locations (RA,Dec, radii, annuli, maps, etc), Lightcurves, and the archive of the GCN follow-up observation Circulars (optical, radio, etc). The main criteria that makes a burst "special" to be included in this page is that follow-up observations have been made.
