"We have observed the field covering the error box of GRB041016
(HETE trigger 3578) with the unfiltered CCD camera on the 30-cm
telescope at University of Miyazaki.The ovservation was started
12:34:30 (UT) on Oct.16.Observed field of view is 43 arcmin centered on
R.A.=01h 45m 24.12s
Dec.=-04d 39' 29.3".
 After co-adding a set of 8 images of 30 sec exposures,we have
compared our images with the USNO A2.0 catalog.Preliminary analysis
shows there is no new source brighter than 18.1mag. in the WXM
error box reported by HETE ."
