I. A. Smith (Rice University) and R. P. J. Tilanus (Joint Astronomy
Centre) report on behalf of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT)
GRB collaboration:
We used the SCUBA sub-millimeter continuum bolometer array on the JCMT
to observe the radio source (GCN #795) and (separate) optical source
(GCN #796) locations suggested as counterparts to GRB 000911. No source
was detected at either location:
Observing times (UT) Coordinates 850 micron flux density (mJy)
20000917 11:47 - 13:35 GCN #795 -0.4 +/- 1.4
20000920 10:30 - 13:00 GCN #795 0.3 +/- 1.1
20000922 11:34 - 13:16 GCN #796 -1.6 +/- 1.7
We would like to thank the dedicated efforts of the JCMT telescope
operators in performing these and previous SCUBA service observations.
