S. B. Cenko (UC Berkeley) reports on behalf of a larger collaboration:
We have imaged the error circle of GRB110213A (D'Elia et al., GCN
11705) with the automated Palomar 60 inch telescope. Observations began
at 05:19 UT (~ 2 minutes after the burst trigger time) and were taken in
the r' filter. We detect a bright source at the location of the UVOT
afterglow, with coordinates:
02:51:51.43 +49:16:23.3
Using several USNO-B1 field stars for comparison, we measure a magnitude
of R ~ 17.1 at this time. Observations are ongoing.
