GRB 240419A: Prompt enhanced Swift-XRT position
Abstract
Using promptly downlinked XRT event data for GRB 240419A, we find an enhanced XRT position of the afterglow: RA, Dec: 94.53358, -44.99999 which is equivalent to: RA (J2000) = 06 18 08.06 Dec (J2000) = -44 59 60.0 with an uncertainty of 1.9 arcseconds (radius, 90% confidence). Analysis of the promptly available data is online at http://www.swift.ac.uk/sper/1222955. Position enhancement is is described by Goad et al. (2007, A&A, 476, 1401) and Evans et al. (2009, MNRAS, 397, 1177). This circular is an official product of the Swift-XRT team.
