ROSAT OBSERVATIONS OF GAMMA-RAY BURST ERROR BOXES .2. GRB910814 AND GRB920525

We present ROSAT PSPC observations of the southeastern quadrant of the COMPTEL error box of GRB910814, and ROSAT HRI observations of the Int er-Planetary Network (IPN) error box of GRB920525. The goal of these o bservations was to search for a quiescent x-ray counterpart of these g amma-ray bursts. The field of the x-ray observations for GRB980814 inc luded 1.5 degrees of the IPN error annulus within the COMPTEL 2 sigma error contour. Thirty-nine x-ray sources were detected within the 2 de grees field of the PSPC observation. One of these sources is located w ithin the IPN annulus, but this detection is consistent with the expec ted background rate for faint x-ray sources. B and V CCD images of the fields of the nine strongest x-ray sources were obtained to try to id entify the optical counterparts of these sources. Likely candidates we re identified for a number of these x-ray sources. In the field of GRB 920525, four x-ray sources were identified, one of which was bright. N one of these sources, however, were located within the IPN error box. (C) 1996 American Astronomical Society.
