MASTER II robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru)
located in SAAO was pointed to the GRB150428A (Page et al, GCN 17765) 28
sec after notice time and 90 sec after trigger time at 2015-04-28 01:32:10
UT in two polarizations. On our first single and coadd images we haven`t
found optical transient within SWIFT error-box . The observations made on
a high zenith distance ~ 80 d.
We obtain a followin upper limits:
Date start T_s-T_tr T_m-T_trig Expt. Limit Coadd
(mean_time)
01:32:10.9 90 100 20 16.0 no
01:32:43.2 122 132 20 16.0 no
01:33:14.7 153 168 30 16.4 no
01:33:14.7 153 224 120 17.0 3
01:33:14.7 153 583 770 18.5 9
Also, we can not confirm Danish 1.56m OT (Andersen et. al GCN 17771),
because they do not see it on our images with upper limits specified
above.
