We observed the Swift GRB221204.45 detected by Swift (Trigger No 1143281)
with our 0.35m robotic telescope. The observation was done on 04 December
2022 from 15:05:55 to 15:18:02 (UT), 4.47 hours after the Swift trigger. We
obtained multiple 180-sec exposures in Ic filter. We did not detect any
afterglow within XRT localization. This is consistent with the reported
non-detections of (Lipunov et al., GCN 33018).

 

The following upper limit was calculated using Atlas catalogue as a
reference:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-

JD (mid), T_mid-T0(hrs), Exposure (sec), Filter, Lim_mag

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-

2459918.134358, 4.47, 5 x 180 (stacked), Ic, > 17.7

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
