A. Arai, M. Uemura and T. Uehara (Hiroshima Univ.),
report on behalf of the KANATA GRB team:
We perfomed optical imaging of the field of GRB070220 (GCN 6114) at
9:59-10:20 UT 20 Feb. using TRISPEC attached to the KANATA
1.5-m telescope at Higashi-Hiroshima Observatory, Japan.
We obtained 10 Rc-band images with a 123-s exposure time.
The images were calibrated with neighbor stars
in the USNO A2.0 catalog (r mag ).
We cannot significantly detect the optical afterglow
at the position of the X-ray afterglow reported in GCN 6114 in our images.
The limit magnitude is estimated to be 21.2 (3-sigma).
