[vsnet-grb-info 34225] GRB 240415A 1.3m DFOT Optical upper limit
TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 36381 SUBJECT: GRB 240415A 1.3m DFOT Optical upper limit DATE: 24/05/03 13:09:26 GMT FROM: ANSHIKA GUPTA at ARIES <anshika05180@gmail.com> Anshika Gupta (ARIES), Kuntal Misra (ARIES), Atul Kumar Singh (DDUGU) and Dimple (CMI) report: We observed the field of GRB 240415A detected by Swift (GCN 36128 ) using the 1.3m Devasthal Fast Optical Telescope (DFOT) located at the Devasthal observatory of Aryabhatta Research Institute of observational sciencES (ARIES), Nainital, India. The observation started on 2024-04-16 at 15:29:51 UTC. Multiple frames of 300 sec exposure were acquired in the R band. We do not detect the optical afterglow (earlier reported in GCN 36122, GCN 36123, GCN 36124, GCN 36132) in the stacked image down to a limiting magnitude of 21.8. The photometric calibration is performed using the standard stars from the USNO-B1.0 catalog.
