TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 1146 SUBJECT: GRB 011030: TNG K-band observation DATE: 01/11/21 17:03:56 GMT FROM: Angelo Antonelli at Obs. Astro. di Roma L.A. Antonelli, (INAF, Astr. Obs. Rome), F. Mannucci (CAISMI, CNR, Firenze), E. Pian (INAF, Astr. Obs. Trieste), V. Testa, A. Di Paola, L. Stella (INAF, Astr. Obs. Rome), I. Burud, A. Fruchter, J. Rhoads (STScI), N. Masetti, E. Palazzi, F.

Klose (TLS, Tautenburg), on behalf of a larger collaboration, report: "We imaged the field of XRF011030 (GCN 1118) with TNG equipped with the near-IR camera NICS and K filter on Nov 10, 20:22 - 22:48 UT. During the observation the seeing was 1.5". The AS36 photometric standard was also observed and used for magnitude calibration. No source is detected at the position of the radio transient reported by Taylor et al. (GCN 1136) nor in the Chandra error box of the X-ray source detected by Harrison et al. (GCN 1143) to a 5-sigma limiting magnitude of K = 20.1. This message may be cited."
