Global MASTER-Net (http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)
was pointed to LAT GRB 181225A (Arimoto et al. GCN 23561, first detected by AGILE in GCN 23560 Ursi et al. )
by MASTER-SAAO (at 2018-12-25 21:08:21UT, alert_altitude=9deg.) and by
MASTER-IAC.
MASTER-IAC robotic telescope, located in Spain (IAC Teide Observatory),
was pointed to the LAT GRB181225.49 ( 23h 12m 16.80s , -09d 28m 48.00s, R=0.13)
34022 sec after trigger time at 2018-12-25 21:11:14 UT, with upper limit up to 19.9 mag.
We didn't find OT brighter 19.9 (unfiltered).
The observations started at zenit distance = 60 deg. The sun altitude was -38.0 deg.
The galactic latitude b = -60 deg., longitude l = 98 deg.
Updated in real-time cover map and discovered OT will be available here:
https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=893244
The observation and reduction will be continued.
