Subject
LIGO/Virgo G211117: OAO-WFC NIR follow-up observations
Date
2015-12-30T14:31:26Z (9 years ago)
From
Michitoshi Yoshida at J-GEM <yoshidam@hiroshima-u.ac.jp>
K. Yanagisawa, D. Kuroda (OAO/NAOJ), K. Ohta(Kyoto), N. Kawai(Tokyo
Tech.) and M. Yoshida (Hiroshima) on behalf of the J-GEM collaboration

We carried out J-band imaging observations of 66 nearby galaxies
to search for new point sources associated with the objects,
in responce to G211117.

The observations were made on 28th and 29th December 2015,
with a wide-field infrared camera (D=0.91 m), OAOWFC, of
Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (Japan).

We could find no new point sources brighter than the limiting
magnitude of J=17-18(S/N=3) in Vega system. The photometric
calibration was made against 2MASS field stars.
