TITLE: GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT NUMBER: 122 SUBJECT: SGR1627-41 DATE: 98/07/03 23:44:44 GMT FROM: Kevin Hurley at UCBerkeley/SSL SGR 1627-41 K. Hurley, Space Sciences Laboratory, T. Cline, P. Butterworth, NASA GSFC, E. Mazets and S. Golenetskii, Ioffe Institute, on behalf of the Ulysses and Konus-Wind teams, report: "We have triangulated the position of this soft gamma repeater using 7 Konus-Ulysses events between 17 and 22 June. A typical annulus has a center at (equinox 2000.0) R.A.=22h03m04s, Decl.=-9o49'.8, and a radius 77.247 +/- 0.013 degrees. Around the position of the supernova remnant G337.0-0.1, this annulus nests within the one reported previously (IAUC 6948), but is considerably narrower. Around this position, the 7 annuli give results which are mutually consistent to better than 10 arcseconds. The positions of the annuli suggest that if the source of the bursts is indeed within the SNR, it lies between the two radio lobes. An image may be found at http://ssl.berkeley.edu/ipn3/sgr1627-41/. These preliminary annuli can be refined further." This message may be cited.
