TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 36274 SUBJECT: LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA S240422ed: Archival DECaPSs2 observations of the field of Mag24a DATE: 24/04/24 06:00:35 GMT FROM: Janet Chen at National Central University janetstars@gmail.com
Steve Schulze (CIERA, Northwestern) and Nial R. Tanvir (University of Leicester) report on behalf of the ENGRAVE GW collaboration:
We detect an object at the position of Mag24a (Piro et al., GCN 36267) in archival stacked r- and z-band images of the Dark Energy Camera Plane Survey 2 (DECaPS2; Saydjari et al. 2022).

The diffuse emission of the galaxy at RA, Decl. (J2000) = 7:56:05.744, -22:54:03.51 hinders accurate photometry. We measure r = 22.64 +- 0.08 and z = 21.79 +- 0.08 (not corrected for MW extinction) using a circular aperture with a diameter of 1.1 arcsec and stars from PanSTARRS.
