We report imaging observations for the gravitational wave event S200114f (LVC, GCN Circ. 26734). We started our observations from 2020-01-14 17:55 UT (MJD=58862.75) about 16 hour after the event and ended at 2020-01-16 11:56 UT (MJD=58864.50).
We performed galaxy-targeted observations for 56 galaxies (see the table below) selected from the Catalog and Atlas of the LV galaxies (LVG) (Karachentsev et al., 2004) and the GLADE catalog (Dalya et al. 2018) in the probability skymap of S200114f using the following telescopes and instruments.
We found no apparent transient objects in these galaxies to 5 sigma limiting magnitudes in the AB system listed below.
