(UNAM), and Tanner Wolfram (ASU) report:

We observed 23 galaxies selected from the NED/CLU list with the
Reionization and Transients Infrared Camera (RATIR; www.ratir.org) on
the 1.5m Harold Johnson Telescope at the Observatorio Astron��mico
Nacional on Sierra San Pedro M��rtir on the night of 2019-04-26 UTC. For
each galaxy, we typically obtained 720 seconds of exposure in g and i filters
and 540 seconds of exposure in Y and H filters. Our observations are listed
below. Analysis is proceeding.

We thank the staff of the Observatorio Astron��mico Nacional in San Pedro
M��rtir.
