GCN Circular 6900

Subject
GRB 071011: NAYUTA Optical Observation, correction to GCN6886
Date
2007-10-12T12:30:17Z (17 years ago)
From
Ryo Iizuka at NHAO <iizuka@nhao.go.jp>
R. Iizuka and S. Maeno report on behalf of NHAO.

We observed the field of GRB 071011 (GCN 6882) with MINT
on the 2.0-m NAYUTA telescope at Nishi-Harima Astronomical
Observatory, Japan. We took images in R-band on 2007 Oct 11 13:36 UT  
(56 minutes after the burst).

We detect a source at the position reported by Cenko et al.
(GCN 6895). We estimate a preliminary magnitude relative to
the USNO B1.0 catalog. The source fades over our observations,
as was reported by Perley et al. (GCN 6898).
