RA(J2000) = 16h 27m 24s Dec(J2000) = +78d 23' 39"with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve showed a multi-peaked structure with a duration of about 40 sec. The peak count rate was ~2000 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~5 sec after the trigger. The XRT began observing the field at 21:51:55.3 UT, 78.4 seconds after the BAT trigger. Using promptly downlinked data we find an uncatalogued X-ray source located at RA, Dec 246.78990, 78.39033 which is equivalent to:
RA(J2000) = 16h 27m 09.58s Dec(J2000) = +78d 23' 25.2"with an uncertainty of 3.9 arcseconds (radius, 90% containment). This location is 46 arcseconds from the BAT onboard position, within the BAT error circle. This position may be improved as more data are received; the latest position is available at https://www.swift.ac.uk/sper. We cannot determine whether the source is fading at the present time.
RA (J2000) = 16 27 08.83 Dec (J2000) = +78 23 25.5with an uncertainty of 2.0 arcseconds (radius, 90% confidence). Analysis of the promptly available data is online at http://www.swift.ac.uk/sper/997453.
RA (J2000) = 16:27:08.50 Dec. (J2000) = +78:23:24.9with an error of 0".5, within the UVOT-enhanced XRT position (Evans, GCN #28500). We note this source is also clearly detected in the initial Swift UVOT white finding chart, at a significantly brighter magnitude relative to the nearby field star.
