TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44322 SUBJECT: EP-WXT trigger 01709259586: KAIT optical observations DATE: 26/04/17 06:57:45 GMT FROM: Weikang Zheng at UC Berkeley <weikang@berkeley.edu> WeiKang Zheng (UCB), Xuhui Han (NAOC), Pinpin Zhang (NAOC) and Alexei V. Filippenko (UCB) report on behalf of the KAIT GRB team: The 0.76-m Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope (KAIT), located at Lick Observatory, automatically responded to the EP-WXT trigger 01709259586 (Wu et al., GCN 44213) starting at 05:46 UT, about 27 minutes after the trigger. A set of B,V,R,I and clear (roughly R) filter images were obtained and lasted for ~1.5 hours. We performed photometry on the suggested flare star UCAC4 498-055345 and did not find obvious variability on its brightness at 0.1 mag level.
