M.M.M. Santangelo and S. Gambogi report:
We performed R and I bands CCD imagery of the field of GRB 150413A
with the 0.60-meter f/9.83 Cassegrain reflector of Capannori Astronomical Observatory, Italy.
Weather conditions were good, the seeing was fairly good, and the night-sky brightness
at zenith was 20.15 mag/arcsec2 in V band.
We clearly detected the optical counterpart of GRB 150413A.
Magnitudes in Johnson/Cousins R and I bands derived by means of Mira professional 7 UE software are as follows:
Date UT Exposure Band mag �� sigma
2015-04-13 20:56:22 300 s I 17.2 �� 0.2
2015-04-13 21:04:43 180 s R 17.6 �� 0.1
2015-04-13 21:11:02 360 s I 17.29 �� 0.04
Photometry is based on the nearby GSC 4397:1311 star, with magnitudes of comparison star from PPMXL.
