report on behalf of the FRAM, TAROT and GRANDMA collaborations. 

We performed tiled observations of LIGO/Virgo S200128d event with the 
FRAM-Auger, FRAM-CTA-N, TAROT-Calern (TCA), TAROT-Chili (TCH) 
telescopes. 

FRAM-Auger is located at Pierre Auger Observatory. FRAM-CTA-N is 
located at Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos. TCA is located at 
Calern site at the Cote d'Azur observatory. TCH is located at La Silla 
ESO observatory (LaS/ESO). 

The following table shows for each telescope: the delay in minutes 
from the trigger, which filter is used, the field of view of the 
telescope in degrees and the typical limiting magnitude (AB mag) for a 
given exposure in seconds (s). 

+-------------+---------+----------+-------------+------------+ 
| Telescope | Delay | Filter | f.o.v. | Limiting | 
| | [min] | | [deg] | Mag. | 
|-------------+---------+----------+-------------+------------| 
| FRAM-Auger | 27 | R | 1.0 x 1.0 | 18.0 (60s) | 
| FRAM-CTA-N | 24 | R | 0.45 x 0.45 | 17.0 (90s) | 
| TCA | 1148 | Clear | 1.9 x 1.9 | 18.0 (60s) | 
| TCH | 155 | Clear | 1.9 x 1.9 | 18.0 (60s) | 
+-------------+---------+----------+-------------+------------+ 

We performed the following joint tiled observations [1] :

TStart and TEnd refers respectively to the time of the first and last 
exposure for a given tile. Observations are not necessarily continuous 
in this interval. 
The Probability refers to the 2D spatial probability of the GW skymap 
enclosed in a given tile. 

These observations cover about 9.7% of the cumulative probability of 
the BAYESTAR skymap created on 2020-01-28 02:22:21 (UTC). 


The coverage map is available at:

No significant transient candidates were found during our low latency 
analysis [2,3]. 

GRANDMA (Global Rapid Advanced Network Devoted to the Multi-messenger 
Addicts) is a network of robotic telescopes connected all over the 
world with both photometry and spectrometry capabilities for Time- 
domain Astronomy [2](https://grandma.lal.in2p3.fr/). 

Details on the different telescopes are available on the GRANDMA web 
pages.
