G.Bourban, F.Carrier, G.Burki, T.Courvoisier and L.Weber (Geneva
Observatory) report:
We have carried out observations of the field of HETE GRB 030115(=H2533)
using the C2 CCD Camera (12'x 12') on the Swiss 1.2-meter telescope
at the ESO La Silla Observatory (Chile), beginning at 05:31 UT
on 2003 January 15. We have obtained eight images in band V, with
exposure time of 30, 90, 120 and 400sec. We find no new object to the
limit V < 19 of the DSS in the HETE SXC error circle for the burst,
confirming the result reported in GCN Circulars 1806 (Flaccomio et al.)
and 1808 (Blake et al.).
