TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 19093 SUBJECT: GRB 160225A: Continued RATIR Optical and NIR Observations DATE: 16/02/26 16:52:29 GMT FROM: Nat Butler at Az State U Nat Butler (ASU), Alan M. Watson (UNAM), Alexander Kutyrev (GSFC), William H. Lee (UNAM), Michael G. Richer (UNAM), Ori Fox (STScI), J.

Zach Golkhou (ASU), and Vicki Toy (UMD) report: We observed the field of GRB 160225A (Siegel, et al., GCN 19075) with the Reionization and Transients Infrared Camera (RATIR; www.ratir.org) on the 1.5m Harold Johnson Telescope at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on Sierra San Pedro Mártir from 2016/02 26.13 to 2016/02 26.51 UTC (12.72 to 21.97 hours after the BAT trigger), obtaining a total of 6.38 hours exposure in the r and i bands and 2.68 hours exposure in the Z, Y, J, and H bands. With continued exposure (see, Butler, et al., GCN 19088), we now detect the WHT afterglow candidate (Wiersema, et al., GCN 19082) in all bands. In comparison with the SDSS DR9 and 2MASS catalogs, we find: r = 23.84 +/- 0.18 i = 23.13 +/- 0.11 Z = 22.71 +/- 0.18 Y = 22.40 +/- 0.22 J = 22.44 +/- 0.26 H = 22.04 +/- 0.26 These magnitudes are in the AB system and are not corrected for Galactic extinction in the direction of the GRB. We have fitted our photometry with a power-law source and redshifted Milky Way, LMC, or SMC extinction laws and IGM extinction (see, Littlejohns, et al. 2014). The detection in r conclusively rules out solutions with z > 5. However, there are a range of solutions up to z ~ 4.5. We thank the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional in San Pedro Mártir.
