S. Dichiara, C. Guidorzi (U. Ferrara), C.G. Mundell (LJMU),
A. Gomboc (U. Ljubljana) on behalf of a large collaboration report:
One of the Las Cumbres Observatory 1-m telescopes in Sutherland
(South Africa) began observing Swift GRB 140730A (Markwardt et al.
GCN Circ 16642) on July 31 at 01:16:34 UT, i.e.
~5.5 hours after the BAT trigger, with the r' and i' filters.
Within the enhanced XRT error circle (Goad et al. GCN Circ. 16644)
we found nothing down to the following limit:
Mid time from Total Exp Filter Magnitude
trigger (hr) (s)
-------------------------------------------------
5.64 120x5 r' > 20.0
5.83 120x5 i' > 19.8
-------------------------------------------------
Magnitudes are calibrated against nearby USNO-B1 stars.
