(TokyoTech) report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:
We observed the field of GRB 220107B (M. Arimoto et al. GCN Circular
#31409, P. A. Evans et al. #31407, J. D. Gropp et al. #31411,�� A. Suresh
et al. #31412, P. Veres and C. Meegan #31414, S.Q. Jiang et al. #31417)
with the optical three color (g', Rc, and Ic) CCD cameras attached to
the MITSuME 50 cm telescope Akeno. The observation with a series of 60
sec exposures started at 2022-01-08 17:04:13 UT (22 hours after Fermi
trigger). We stacked the images with good conditions. We did not detect
any uncatalogued sources within the XRT error region (J. D. Gropp et al.
GCN Circular #31411). We obtained the 5-sigma limits of the stacked
images as follows.
T0+[hours] MID-UT T-EXP[sec] 5-sigma limits
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
22.0 2022-01-08 18:58:13 11820 g'>20.7, Rc>20.9, Ic>20.1

T0+ : Elapsed time after the burst
T-EXP: Total Exposure time
We used PS1 catalog for flux calibration.
The magnitudes are expressed in the AB system.
The images were processed in real-time through the MITSuME GPU reduction
pipeline (Niwano et al. 2021, PASJ, Vol.73, Issue 1, Pages 4-24;
