TITLE: GCN/IPN/HUNTSVILLE LOCALIZATION NOTICE_TYPE: Updated (based on the BATSE-LOCBURST location) NOTICE_DATE: Tue Mar 23 20:13:38 GMT 1999 TRIGGER_NUM: 7488 GRB_DATE: 99/03/22 GRB_TIME: 04:03:56.53 UT BACO_RA: 348.67d {+23h 14m 41s} (J2000) BACO_DEC: -72.47d {-72d 27' 56"} HUNT_RA: 14.23d {+00h 56m 56s} (J2000) HUNT_DEC: -68.16d {-68d 09' 48"} HUNT_ERR: 2.50 [degees radius, statistical only] B_H_DELTA: 9.52 [deg] HUNT_SC_AZ: 296.56 [deg] HUNT_SC_EL: 36.56 [deg] {Zen_angle=53.44} SUN_POSTN: 361.00d {+24h 04m 01s} +0.44d {+00d 26' 07"} (Current) SUN_B_DIST: 73.32 [deg] MOON_POSTN: 60.07d {+04h 00m 18s} +15.37d {+15d 22' 07"} (Current) MOON_B_DIST: 99.22 [deg] ANNULUS_RA: 330.9502d {+22h 03m 48s} (J2000) ANNULUS_DEC: 9.1254d {+09d 07' 31"} ANNULUS_RADIUS: 85.191 [deg] ANNULUS_WIDTH: 0.129 [deg] (Total width) COMMENTS: Single pulse, duration about 10 sec. Seen above 300 keV. COMMENTS: This notice is at T+40 hrs. 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). The center of the IPN annulus is tabulated below along the segment that intersects the Huntsville error circle. The Distance column is the sky-angle distance between the Huntville location and the sampled position on the arc segment. The position of maximum probability plus the 1-, 2-, & 3-sigma containment probabilities (statistical+systematic) are marked.
