López-Corredoira (IAC, La Laguna)\n\nreport:\n\n\"On Dec 4.16 UT we observed the field of the short\n/hard GRB 021201 (GCN 1719) with the 2.5-m Nordic \nOptical Telescope (+ALFOSC) at the Observatorio del \nRoque de los Muchachos, in order to monitor the \nentire IPN error box. In the co-added image (5 x \n900-s in the r' Sloan filter with a 2\".8 seeing), \nno optical transient is found when comparing to the\nDSS-2 (R-band). Particularly, a point-like optical \nsource with R about 20.5 is found at coordinates \nRA(2000) = 08 07 49.35, Dec(2000) = +21 12 33.8 \n(+/- 0\".5); this is within 2\" of the Chandra \nsource # 10 reported to be inside the IPN error box \n(GCN 1741). Such object is visible in the blue and \nred DSS-2 charts as a very blue source that does \nnot seem to be related to the GRB 021201. Further \nobservations are planned.\" \n\nThis message can be quoted.",
