N. Bannister (Leicester) report:
"The 2-m Faulkes Telescope North (Hawaii) robotically followed up
GRB060114 (INTEGRAL trigger 2733) 1.9 min after the GRB trigger time.
The automatic "detection mode" procedure did not find any afterglow
candidate brighter than R~19 mag (vs USNOB1) from a 6x10s exposure.
The visual extinction of the field is negligible (A_V~0.1) according
to the Schlegel et al. maps.
Further automated observations were conducted immediately following the
"detection mode" exposures in R and SDSS-I filters.
Manual inspection of subsequent datasets
reveals no afterglow candidate down to the DSS limit."

(ISDC, Versoix), and J. Borkowski (CAMK, Torun) on behalf of the IBAS
Localization Team report:
A GRB lasting about 100 s and with a FRED profile has been detected by IBAS
in IBIS/ISGRI data at 12:39:44 on January 14 2006.
The coordinates (J2000) derived by the automatic IBAS analysis are:
RA = 195.280
Dec= -4.721
with an uncertainty of about 3 arcmin. An offline analysis to refine the
position is ongoing.
The GRB preliminary peak flux (20-200 keV, 1s integration time) is about 0.3
ph/cmq/s and the fluence (20-200 keV, 100 s integration time)
is about 1.3e-6 erg/cmq
A plot of the light curve will be posted at

"We have observed the field covering the error circle of
GRB060114 (GCN 4505) with the unfiltered CCD camera on
the 30-cm telescope at University of Miyazaki.
The observation was started 16:05:57 UT on Jan.10.
After co-adding a set of 33 images (16:05:57 - 16:54:00 UT)
of 30 sec exposures, we have compared with the USNO A2.0 catalog.
Preliminary analysis shows there is no new source brighter
than 16.2 mag."

Matteo Perri at ISAC/ASDC <perri@asdc.asi.it>
M. Perri (ASDC), G. Tagliaferri (OAB) and D.N. Burrows (PSU) report on
behalf of the Swift/XRT team:
The Swift observatory executed a Target of Opportunity observation
of the INTEGRAL discovered GRB 060114 (Mereghetti et al., GCN 4505).
The XRT began taking data at 19:51:49 UT, approximately 7.2 hours after
the trigger. In an XRT exposure of ~2 ks we did not find an X-ray
counterpart at the INTEGRAL position reported in Shaw et al. (GCN 4506).
We estimate a three sigma upper limit of 8.6e-3 cts/s corresponding to
a 0.3-10 keV flux of about 5e-13 erg/cm2/s.
No further Swift observations are planned.

7.2019 hr after the INTEGRAL trigger. No new source is detected in the
INTEGRAL error circle (Shaw, et al., GCN Circular 4506) in any of the
UVOT exposures down to the following 5-sigma upper limits. These
values are not corrected for Galactic extinction.

REM/ROSS team, report:
On Jan 15, 2005 the field of GRB 060114 (Mereghetti et al. GCN 4505) was
observed with the REM telescope located in La Silla (Chile).
The field was imaged with the ROSS optical spectrograph/imager and with
the REMIR near infrared camera in the R and K filters, respectively,
starting at 6:10 UT (approximately 18 hours after the burst) for a total
integration time of 1200 and 500 s, respectively.
No sources are detected within the IBAS INTEGRAL error circle down to
limiting magnitudes R = 18.1 and K = 15.0 (3-sigma upper limits).
