Source 2 has been manually confirmed as the GRB afterglow; data for this object are now available through the main GRB results area for this GRB.

About tiled field analysis.

So far 1 fields have been scheduled for observations. Data are available and processed for 32 of these. The list gives the exposure time used in source detection. If any individual sources were selected for follow-up observations, the source detection is not repeated for the follow up observations and the table below is not updated.
