Abstract:
Between 2000 November and 2006 May, one or more spacecraft of the
interplanetary network (IPN) detected 226 cosmic gamma-ray bursts that
were also detected by the French Gamma-Ray Telescope experiment on
board the High Energy Transient Experiment 2 spacecraft. During this
period, the IPN consisted of up to nine spacecraft, and using
triangulation, the localizations of 157 bursts were obtained. We
present the IPN localization data on these events.

Note (1): R.A., declination, and radius of the BeppoSAX gamma-ray burst
monitor error circle (Frontera et al. 2009, Cat. J/ApJS/180/192).
Note (2): R.A., declination, and radius of the Wide Field X-Ray Monitor
(WXM) or Soft X-Ray Camera (SXC) error circle, whichever is smaller
(R. Vanderspek et al. 2011, in preparation).
Note (3): The ecliptic latitudes of the bursts, measured northward
(positive) from the ecliptic plane toward the north ecliptic pole.
These are derived by comparing the count rates of the two Konus-Wind
detectors (Aptekar et al. 1995SSRv...71..265A 1995SSRv...71..265A), and can be considered
to be at the 90%-95% confidence level.
Note (4): a = The Konus ecliptic latitude band and the IPN localization
are inconsistent (see Section 3 for further details).
Note (5): R.A., declination, and radius of any other localization region,
which is obtained in one of several ways. For example, error circles
can be derived from the intersection of an IPN annulus and a HETE WXM
one-dimensional localization. Or they may be from the Swift
spacecraft. Or they may be derived from planet blocking by a second
spacecraft in addition to the data in the planet column. In this case
the error circle given is the complement of the planet-blocking
circle, that is, a circle whose R.A. is the R.A. of the planet plus
180°, whose declination is the negative of the planet's declination,
and whose radius is 180° minus the planet's angular radius.
