D. A. Kann, S. Schulze, S. Klose (TLS Tautenburg) and J.
Greiner (MPE) report:
The location of the Swift GRB 070411 (Moretti et al., GCN
6267) was observed in good conditions but at high airmass with
the Tautenburg 1.34m Schmidt Telescope in Rapid Response
Mode (Klose et al., GCN 3609) upon receipt of the BAT
position.
The first image (Rc Band, 180 sec integration) was started at
20:18:15 UT, 5 minutes and 42 seconds after the burst trigger.
We confirm a bright stationary source in the flight-localized
XRT error circle, in accordance with the UVOT position (Moretti
et al., GCN 6267). The afterglow was discovered independently
of the UVOT observation.
Further analysis and observations are in progress.
