Adria C. Updike, Jason Puls, Dieter H. Hartmann (Clemson University),
Matt Wood (FIT), Josh Cardenzana (U Missouri - Rolla), and Shelsea
Pederson (MIT) report:
We re-imaged the field of GRB 070612A (GCN 6509, Grupe et al.) with the
SARA 0.9m telescope at Kitt Peak under decent weather conditions. We
obtained 15 minutes of R-band images beginning 24 hours after the
trigger (282006).
The afterglow (Updike et al. GCN 6515, Cenko et al. GCN 6525) is
detected at a R-band magnitude of 18.3 +/- 0.4 as calibrated relative to
9 USNO B1.0 stars, thus confirming the fading behavior.
