The optical and X-ray content of the 1992 May 1 gamma-ray burst error box

A gamma-ray burst which occurred on 1992 May 1 was observed by three spacecraft in the third interplanetary network, and rapidly localized to a small error box. The coordinates were promptly circulated to a wide astronomical community, and radio, optical, and X-ray counterpart searches were carried out. A weak X-ray source was found in the error box, and two radio sources are discovered outside the error box, but in alignment with the X-ray source. The X-ray source position contains approximately 25 optical objects down to 23d magnitude. We discuss the prospects for identifying the burster counterpart.
