TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 20352 SUBJECT: Trigger 729410: Swift detection of V2293 Oph DATE: 17/01/01 20:04:50 GMT FROM: Scott Barthelmy at NASA/GSFC S. D. Barthelmy (GSFC), A. Y. Lien (GSFC/UMBC) and D. Malesani (DARK/NBI and DTU Space) report on behalf of the Swift Team: At 19:46:46 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located V2293 Oph (trigger=729410). Swift did not slew because of the Sun observing constraint. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA, Dec 259.889, -25.025, which is RA(J2000) = 17h 19m 33s Dec(J2000) = -25d 01' 30" with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including systematic uncertainty). The real-time light curve does not show anything, as is typical for image triggers. This source is in Sun observing constraint until January 27. So there will be no XRT or UVOT observations until then.
