report:
We observed the location of GRB 160327A (Racusin et al., GCN Circ. 19235)
using the SCUBA-2 sub-millimeter continuum camera on the James Clerk
Maxwell Telescope. The observation started at 10:24 UT on 2016-03-27,
corresponding to 68 minutes after the burst trigger. Exposures totaling
1.0 hours were made in good weather conditions. No source was detected,
with the RMS background noise being 2.0 mJy/beam at 850 microns and
26.0 mJy/beam at 450 microns.
We thank Callie Matulonis and Iain Coulson for the prompt support of
these observations that were taken under project M16AP005.
