Follow-up Photometry of iPTF14yb
Abstract
We observed the field around the GRB afterglow candidate iPTF14yb (Cenko et al. ATel #5924) with the DIAFI instrument mounted on the 2.7 m Harlan J. Smith Telescope at McDonald Observatory, Texas. A series of CCD frames using Sloan-g and Sloan-r filters were collected on Feb.27 08:25 UT. The transient has been successfully detected on all frames.
