James Sunseri, Keto D. Zhang, Shaunak Modak, WeiKang Zheng,

and Alexei V. Filippenko (UC Berkeley) report on behalf of

the Lick/KAIT GW follow-up team:


The 0.76-m Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope (KAIT), located at

Lick Observatory, observed the 90% region of the gravitational-wave

event S200224ca (GCN 27184) detected by LIGO/Virgo. More than

one thousand galaxies were selected from the Glade catalog V1.0

(Dalya et al., 2018, MNRAS, 479, 2374; http://aquarius.elte.hu/glade/)

according to their priority score. KAIT observed 77 of them based on

their priority scores and elevation visibility, with each clear-filter

exposure time being 60 s. The first image was taken at 05:01:26, Feb.

25th UT, about 6.7 hours after the trigger, and the last image at

09:29:37 UT. Our typical limiting mag is 19.0. No viable counterparts

were identified and the analysis is ongoing. A full list of galaxies

observed by KAIT is given below.
