and N. Kawai (Tokyo Tech) report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration
We searched for the optical counterpart of GRB 190106A (Sonbas et al., GCN
Circular #23615) with the optical three color (g', Rc, and Ic) CCD cameras
attached to the MITSuME 50cm telescope of Akeno Observatory, Yamanashi, Japan.
The observation started on 13:35:33 UT which corresponds to
49 sec after the trigger.
We detected the point source at the position consistent with the Swift/UVOT
observation (Sonbas et al., GCN Circular #23615) and MASTER
observation (Lipunov et al., GCN Circular #23616).
The measured magnitudes are listed as follows.
T0+[sec] MID-UT T-EXP[sec] g' Rc Ic
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
~49 13:36:02.6 60 ~16.1 ~15.6 ~15.5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
T0+ : Elapsed time after the burst
T-EXP: Total Exposure time
We used UCAC-4 catalog for flux calibration.
The magnitudes are expressed in the AB system.
Further analysis is ongoing.
