COMMENTS: This notice is based on 1 1.024-sec samples of the light curve. COMMENTS: This report is based only on the BATSE-Original and IPN COMMENTS: information as input. There is no Huntville input COMMENTS: at this early stage of processing. COMMENTS: The burst is about 15 sec in duration. 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 BACODINE 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.
