COMMENTS: SWIFT Figure-of-Merit decision.
COMMENTS: This was NOT of sufficient merit to become the new Automated Target.
COMMENTS: FOM will NOT request the s/c to slew.
COMMENTS: This matches a source in the ground catalog: IGR17252-3616, delta=0.040 [deg].
COMMENTS:
COMMENTS: The next comments were copied from the BAT_POS Notice:
COMMENTS: This is an image trigger. (The RATE_SIGNIF is undefined.)
COMMENTS: A point_source was found.
COMMENTS: This matches a source in the on-board catalog.
COMMENTS: This is not a GRB.
COMMENTS: Since the IMAGE_SIGNIF is less than 7 sigma, this is a questionable detection.
COMMENTS: This is an interesting source.
