Abstract
The newly discovered transient source IGR J18245-2452 (Eckert et al, ATel #4925), triggered the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) on 2013-03-30 at 02 22 21 (image trigger=552336, Barthelmy et al, GCN 14355), and subsequently at 15 10 37 UT (image trigger=552369) and 15 17 33.61 UT (image trigger=552370). The BAT ground-calculated position for trigger 552336 is RA, Dec = 276.111, -24.857 deg which is <BR /> RA(J2000) = 18h 24m 26.6s <BR /> Dec(J2000) = -24d 51' 25.6" <BR /> with an uncertainty of 3.9 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% c.l.).
