TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 17460 SUBJECT: GRB 150212A: RATIR Optical and NIR Observations DATE: 15/02/12 22:41:55 GMT FROM: Nat Butler at Az State U Nat Butler (ASU), Alan M.

We find one uncatalogued source within the Swift XRT error circle (Evans, et al., GCN 17452) at a position RA, Dec = 285.48273, 47.36637 (+/- 0.5", J2000) with magnitudes r = 23.1 +/- 0.4 and i = 21.4 +/- 0.1. This source does not appear to fade in time during our observation. For other potential sources within the XRT error circle, in comparison with USNO-B1 and 2MASS, we obtain the following upper limits (3-sigma): r > 23.1 i > 23.3 z > 19.6 These magnitudes are in the AB system and are not corrected for Galactic extinction in the direction of the GRB.
