COMMENTS: Seen above 300keV. This IPN localization is preliminary. The "total width" of the annulus was selected to include all known uncertainties and systematics. The final analysis will reduce this width. All follow-up queries should be addressed to Kevin Hurley (UC Berkeley, khurley@sunspot.ssl.berkeley.edu). SPECIAL NOTES: This is a long, strong burst. But it had a slow rise, which is always a troublesome scenario for BACODINE, so the BACO location is ~9deg off the correct (Huntsville) location (RA=29.6; Dec=31.7); also consistent with the IPN. This IPN annulus is tabulated below along the segment that intersects a combination of the Huntsville and BACODINE error circles. The position of maximum probability is marked.
