GRB 090111, the review of the sky area in plate archives (1976-1996)
V.V. Golovnya, L.N. Kizyun (Main Astronomical Observatory, Kyiv)
report:
We have undertaken the review of the sky area of GRB 090111
(Evans et al., GCN 8796) on astronegatives, collected in Ukrainian NAS
Main
astronomical observatory plate archive (1976-1996)[1,2,3]. All the
plates
with the possible object appearance are digitized using Microtek
ScanMaker
9800XL TMA flatbed scanner and have been placed into Golosiiv Plate
Archive
database DBGPA with open access to them.
The list of plates is given in the table:
