V. Rumyantsev (CrAO), K.Antoniuk (CrAO), A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on
behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:
We observed the field of the Swift GRB 130502A (Troja et al., GCN 14527)
with AZT-11 telescope of CrAO observatory on May 02 starting on (UT)
18:20:46, i.e. ~30 min after burst trigger. We took several images in
R-filter of 180 s exposure. Within enchanced XRT position (Beardmore et
al., GCN 14536) we do not detect any source. Preliminary photometry of
a combined image is following
