TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 10974 SUBJECT: GRB 100724A: Enhanced Swift-XRT position DATE: 10/07/24 16:03:15 GMT FROM: Phil Evans at U of Leicester A.P. Beardmore, P.A. Evans, M.R. Goad and J.P. Osborne (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift-XRT team. Using 6782 s of XRT Photon Counting mode data and 7 UVOT images for GRB 100724A, we find an astrometrically corrected X-ray position (using the XRT-UVOT alignment and matching UVOT field sources to the USNO-B1 catalogue): RA, Dec = 194.54312, -11.10263 which is equivalent to: RA (J2000): 12h 58m 10.35s Dec (J2000): -11d 06' 09.5" with an uncertainty of 1.5 arcsec (radius, 90% confidence). This position may be improved as more data are received. The latest position can be viewed at http://www.swift.ac.uk/xrt_positions. Position enhancement is described by Goad et al. (2007, A&A, 476, 1401) and Evans et al. (2009, MNRAS, 397, 1177). This circular was automatically generated, and is an official product of the Swift-XRT team.
