GCN Circular 21558

A. Klotz (IRAP CNRS/UPS), R. Laugier, M. Boer, K. Noysena (ARTEMIS 
CNRS/UCA/OCA) report on behalf of the TZAC collaboration

We have observed the initial error box with the TRE (TAROT-Reunion) 
Telescope located at Les Makes Observatory, La R��union Island, France. 
Each image (no filter)  lasts for 120s and covers a field of 4.2 x 4.2 
deg2, with a magnitude limit of 17.0. Unfortunately the position of the 
candidate afterglow reported by Coulter et al. (LVC GCN 21529
Not found
 
 
) was not 
in the position observable at that time given the automated generation 
of the fields, the mixed weather conditions, and the position of the GW 
candidate transient in the sky.

We list below the log of the observations. Images are under analysis.
