TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 10182 SUBJECT: GRB 091117: VLA radio observations DATE: 09/11/20 04:08:09 GMT FROM: Edo Berger at Harvard E. Berger and W. Fong (Harvard) report: "We imaged the BAT error circle of the short GRB 091117 (GCN #10171) with the VLA at a frequency of 8.46 GHz starting on 2009 Nov 20.07 UT. In the 1 hour observation only a single source is detected within the BAT error circle, in coincidence with the galaxy near XRT Source #2 (GCNs #10177,10178). However, inspection of the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) reveals a coincident archival source, indicating that this is not the afterglow of GRB 091117. No other sources are detected within the BAT error circle to a 3-sigma limit of about 120 microJy."
