" We have imaged the Swift XRT position of GRB 050502b (Pagani. C. et
al., GCN 3333) using 1-m telescope at Lulin Observatory, Taiwan. The R
band observations started from 13.45 UT (~ 3.98 hours after the
burst). The limiting magnitude of R-band co-added image is R~21.8
compared with USNO-B1.0 stars. No source was detected under the
limiting magnitude at the XRT position."
