"Following the detection of GRB 190220B by INTEGRAL (Gotz et al. GCNC
23915), the 0.6m BOOTES-4/MET robotic telescope at Lijiang Astronomical
Observatory (China) responded to the the burst gathering images starting
at 20:17:12 UT (89 s after trigger, 84 s after notice). No optical
afterglow candidate is found down to 18 mag (g'-band) in the co-added
(5x10s) image within the reported INTEGRAL 2 arcmin radius error box.
Observations are ongoing."
