TITLE: GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT NUMBER: 110 SUBJECT: SGR 1627-41 DATE: 98/06/18 18:49:41 GMT FROM: Kevin Hurley at UCBerkeley/SSL K. Hurley, Space Sciences Laboratory, on behalf of the Ulysses Gamma-Ray Burst Team and C. Kouveliotou, Universities Space Research Association, on behalf of the Gamma-Ray Observatory BATSE team, report: "This soft gamma repeater (IAUC 6944) has been observed by Ulysses. Triangulation gives a preliminary annulus whose center is at (equinox 2000.0) R.A. = 22h01m40s, Decl. = -10o09'.8, and whose radius is 76.771 +/- 0.05 deg. This annulus intersects the BATSE error circle and forms an error box with an area of approximately 1700 sq. arcmin. Further refinement of this position is possible.
