A. Moskvitin (SAO RAS), M. Krugov (AFIF) report on behalf of IKI-GW
follow-up collaboration:
We report a photometry of the counterpart SSS17a/DLT17ck (Coulter et
al. GCN 21529; Yang et al., GCN 21531) of LIGO/Virgo trigger G298048
(LIGO Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration, GCNs 21509,
21513) with RC-1000 1m telescope of CHILESCOPE observatory (GCNs 21618,
21635, 21644). The observations carried out in a clear filter in four
epochs. We used last epoch (7.49278 days after trigger) to construct a
mask for subsequent mask subtraction. The PSF photometry is based on
several nearby USNO-B1.0 stars (R2 magnitudes).
Photometry of the transient SSS17a/DLT17ck is following
