A. Pozanenko (IKI), A. Volnova (SAI MSU), A. Sergeev (Institute of Radio
Astronomy of NASU), O. Burhonov (UBAI), I. Molotov (KIAM) report on
behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:
We observed the field of Swift GRB 121128A (Oates et al., GCN 14007)
with AZT-22 telescope of Maidanak observatory starting on Nov. 30 (UT)
13:47:48 under mean seeing (FWHM) of about 1 arcsec. We obtained several
images of 180 s exposure in R filter. The optical afterglow
(Oates et al., GCN 14007; Japelj et al., GCN 14008) is not detected in
our images. A photometry of the stacked image is based on nearby
USNO-B1.0 stars:
