Subject
GRB 120326A: Optical observations at Crni Vrh

B. Dintinjana and B. Mikuz on behalf of PIKA observing program at Crni 
Vrh Observatory:

We observed the afterglow of GRB 120326A (Siegel et al., GCN 13105) with 
60 cm Cichocki robotic telescope at Crni Vrh Observatory, Slovenia. The 
series of twenty 60 second exposures with R filter started at 1:27:50UT, 
440 seconds after the burst. We confirm optical afterglow at coordinates 
by C. Guidorzi (GCN 13111).

Photometry results are given in table below. The table contains the time 
since the Swift GRB detection to the middle of exposure in seconds, R 
magnitude and photometric error. The magnitudes are derived using 
comparison stars from the USNO-B1 catalogue. The 3-sigma limiting 
magnitude in R filter is around magnitude 20.5 � 0.3
