H. Kirbiyik (TUG) report on behalf of a larger collaboration
We observed the field of Swift GRB 130502A (Troja et al. GCN#14527)
with the 1.0 meter T100 telescope (TUBITAK National Observatory,
Antalya - Turkey), starting May, 02, 18:17:41 UT (~ 27 minutes after
the trigger). Observations were carried out in the R filter under good
weather conditions.
We do not detect an optical afterglow within the reported XRT error
circle down to a limiting magnitude of 20.8 in the R band. Our image
is calibrated using USNO A2.0 R1 magnitude of the star at RA :
135.578498, DEC : -00.149362 (J2000).
We are grateful to the TUBITAK National Observatory staff for promptly
scheduling the observations and their technical support.
