GRB010213 Optical Observation
J. Zhu, on behalf of the Beijing Astronomical Observatory GRB team, report:
"The 58 x 58 arcmin area centered at the HETE II error circle of GRB010214
(G. Ricker et al, GCN #934) were imaged on Feb. 15.5 (48 hours after the
burst) with the BAO 0.6-m Schmidt telescope. 13 images were taken (30 min.
exposure for each) with the BATC-i filter, and the detection limitation
of the combined image is about R=22.
There is no optical counterpart at the position of the radio source
mentioned by E. Berger and D. A. Frail (GCN #945) for our detection
threshold. (An epoch 2000.0 is assumed for their coordinates.)
The image will be compared with further observations for any variable
object.
This report may be cited."
