Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:
We observed the field of GRB 150323B (Cummings et al., GCN 17619) with
ORI-40 telescope of Khureltogot observatory starting on Mar., 23 (UT)
16:06:11. We obtained 60 unfiltered images of 60 s exposure. Following
detection of XRT sources (D'Avanzo et al., GCN 17634) we do not detect
any source within XRT error circle of the source #1 up to a limiting
magnitude 21.2. In particular we do detect the optical source found by
Kelemen et al. (GCN 17643). At the position of XRT source #2 we found
optical source which coincides with USNO star mentioned by Xin et al.
(GCN 17638) and the star of SDSS DR9 catalog J172150.45+381700.1.
Photometry of the sources is following
Source# Date UT start t-T0 Filter Exp. mag. UL(3sigma)
(mid, days) (s)
1 2015-03-23 16:06:11 0.29859 none 60*60 n/d 21.2
2 2015-03-23 16:06:11 0.29859 none 60*60 20.7+/-0.25 21.2
The photometry is based on R magnitudes of nearby SDSS DR9 stars
