(U. of Leicester) report:
We observed GRB 190114C (Gropp et al., GCN Circ. 23688)
using the SCUBA-2 sub-millimeter continuum camera on the James
Clerk Maxwell Telescope in very good weather conditions on
UT 2019-01-15, 2019-01-16, and 2019-01-18. The source was not
detected in the separate nights, or in the combination of all
the data. The RMS background noise in the combined image was
0.95 mJy/beam at 850 microns and 5.4 mJy/beam at 450 microns.
We thank Mark Rawlings, Kevin Silva, Sheona Urquart, and the
JCMT staff for the prompt support of these observations that
were taken under project M18BP040.
