COMMENTS: by our on-board position determination algorithm. We have increased
COMMENTS: the estimated error circle radius to take this into account.
COMMENTS: The object found at this position is either a very bright burst or a cosmic ray hit.
COMMENTS: Examine the XRT Image to differentiate (CRs are much more compact; see examples at:
