MASTER II robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru)
located in Blagoveschensk was pointed to the GRB140930B 21 sec after
notice time and 39 sec after trigger time at 2014-09-30 19:42:21 UT in two
polarizations. On our first (10s exposure) set we haven`t found optical
transient within SWIFT error-box (ra=00 25 25 dec=+24 16 28 r=0.050000).
The 5-sigma upper limit has been about 16.0 mag
MASTER II robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru)
located in Kislovodsk was pointed to the GRB140930B 36 sec after notice
time and 54 sec after trigger time at 2014-09-30 19:42:36 UT in two
polarizations. On our first (10s exposure) set we haven`t found optical
transient within SWIFT error-box (ra=00 25 25 dec=+24 16 27 r=0.050000).
The 5-sigma upper limit has been about 15.5 mag
The observations on both observatories is continued.
