IPN triangulation of GRB 240123C (short)
Abstract
Report the short-duration GRB 240123C was detected by Konus-Wind, INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS), Swift (BAT), and Mars-Odyssey (HEND) at about 83553 s UT (23:12:33). The burst was outside the coded field of view of the BAT. We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose coordinates are: --------------------------------------------- RA(2000), deg Dec(2000), deg --------------------------------------------- Center: 244.077 (16h 16m 19s) -58.857 (-58d 51' 25") Corners: 240.883 (16h 03m 32s) -55.715 (-55d 42' 55") 241.066 (16h 04m 16s) -56.037 (-56d 02' 14") 248.066 (16h 32m 16s) -61.657 (-61d 39' 24") 247.747 (16h 30m 59s) -61.386 (-61d 23' 11") --------------------------------------------- The error box area is 1219 sq. arcmin, and its maximum dimension is 7.0 deg (the minimum one is 3 arcmin). The Sun distance was 58 deg. This localization may be improved. A triangulation map and HEALPix FITS file are posted at http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB240123_T83553/IPN The Konus-Wind time history and spectrum will be given in a forthcoming GCN Circular.
