Abstract
A. J. Castro-Tirado, Laboratorio de Astrofisica Espacial y Fisica Fundamental, Madrid; S. Ilovaisky, Observatoire de Haute- Provence; and H. Pedersen, Copenhagen University Observatory, write: "Following the detection of GS 1354-64 by Rossi XTE (IAUC 6772) and BATSE (IAUC 6774), B- and R-band images were obtained with the New Technology Telescope at the European Southern Observatory on Nov. 22.35 UT by J.-F. Gonzalez, M. Pizarro, J. Miranda, and H. Boehnhardt. The optical counterpart (cf. Kitamoto et al. 1990, Ap.J. 361, 590) is being detected in a bright state. Preliminary magnitudes: R = 16.9 +/-0.1, B = 18.1 +/- 0.2."
