M.M.M. Santangelo and S. Gambogi report:
We performed R and
I bands CCD imagery of the field of GRB 150413A
with the 0.60-meter f/9.83 Cassegrain reflector of Capannori
Astronomical Observatory, Italy.
Weather conditions were good, the seeing was fairly
good, and the night-sky brightness
at zenith was 20.15 mag/arcsec2 in V band.
We clearly detected the optical counterpart of GRB 150413A.
Magnitudes in Johnson/Cousins
R and I bands derived by means of Mira professional 7 UE
software are as follows:
Date
