Boer\n(CESR-LAT/OMP Toulouse) communicate:\n\nAdditonal observations of the field of XRF 030824 (HETE 2821) have been\nobtained with MEGAPRIME at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope.\n\nTwo 800 sec exposures with i' filter, starting on Oct 3, 08:07 UT, and\n\nTwo 300 sec exposures with r' filter, starting on Oct 4, 06:57 UT\n\nThese data are being analyzed, in comparison with the data acquired\nwith MEGAPRIME on Sept 21st (i' filter, Klotz et al., GCN 2406) and with\nthe images of the Large Format Camera recorded on August 25 and 26th\n(R filter, Fox et al., GCN 2364 & 2369)\n\nA first result of these observations is to discard the two \nsources mentioned in GCN 2406 as being possibly associated\nwith XRF 030824. \nThese objects where selected as being significantly\nbrighter in the September images than in the August images \n(as expected for a SN associated with XRF 030824).\nThe new observations show that they are in fact very red objects, \nvery faint in R but clearly visible in all i' images, and not variable. \n\nThe whole set of observations is being re-analyzed to search for\nor to constrain a possible supernova associated with XRF 030824.",
