P.A. Evans (U. Leicester) reports on behalf of the Swift-XRT team:
Using promptly downlinked XRT event data for GRB 200907B, we find an
enhanced XRT position of the afterglow: RA, Dec: 89.0289, 6.9063 which
is equivalent to:
RA (J2000) = 05 56 06.93
Dec (J2000) = +06 54 22.8
with an uncertainty of 2.2 arcseconds (radius, 90% confidence).
Analysis of the promptly available data is online at
http://www.swift.ac.uk/sper/995004.
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.
