E. Mazaeva (IKI), A. Volnova (IKI), A. Kusakin (Fesenkov Astrophysical
Institute), A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up
collaboration:
We observed the field of GRB 150423A (Pagani et al., GCNC 17728) with
Zeiss-1000 (East) 1-m telescope of Tien Shan Astronomical Observatory
starting on Apr. 23 (UT) 17:43:02. We obtained several images in R-filter.
In a combined image we marginally detect the source S2 and do not detect the
afterglow (Varela et al., GCN 17729). Coordinates of the S2 (J2000) 14 46
18.94 +12 17 04.4 with an uncertainty of 0.4" is marginally coincide with
coordinates reported by Varela et al. (GCN 17729).
A preliminary photometry is following
