TITLE: GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT NUMBER: 1970 SUBJECT: Possible GRB030323 localized by INTEGRAL DATE: 03/03/27 19:36:36 GMT FROM: INTEGRAL Shift Ops at INTEGRAL V. Beckmann and S.E. Shaw on behalf of the INTEGRAL Science Data Center, J.-P. Roques on behalf of the SPI instrument team, Sergei Molkov (IKI), and the INTEGRAL Science Working team report the detection of a possible GRB at 08:42:24 UTC on March 23, 2003. The burst lasted about 5 seconds. The preliminary position is RA 19h 49m, DEC -12deg 30' (J2000) with an uncertainty of 2 degrees radius. The preliminary peak flux over 2 seconds is about 2 * 10^-7 ergs/cm**2/sec between 25 and 100 keV. The burst has been detected by SPI at large off-axis angle (14.5 degrees), outside the field of view of IBIS. This message may be cited.
