TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 14996 SUBJECT: GRB 130702A: Maidanak optical observations DATE: 13/07/09 10:46:20 GMT FROM: Alexei Pozanenko at IKI, Moscow A. Pozanenko (IKI), A. Volnova (IKI), O. Burhonov (UBAI), I. Molotov (KIAM) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration: We continue observations of the afterglow (Singer et al., GCN 14967) of GRB 130702A (Cheung et al., GCN 14971; Collazzi et al., GCN 14972) with AZT-22 telescope of Maidanak observatory. A preliminary photometry of combined images is based on two SDSS stars suggested by Schulze et al. (GCN 14978) and used in our previous observations (Pozanenko et al, GCN 14988) T_start T0+ Filter, Exposure, OT (UT) (mid, d) (s) 2013-07-05T16:25:11 3.6592 R 6x600 19.61+/-0.02 2013-07-06T16:20:12 4.6540 R 6x600 19.71+/-0.03 2013-07-07T16:45:34 5.6717 R 6x600 19.83+/-0.04 2013-07-08T16:49:14 6.6759 R 6x300 19.81+/-0.05 The light curve is based on the photometry of this CGN circular and our previous observations (Pozanenko et al, GCN 14988) and can be found at http://grb.rssi.ru/GRB130702A/GRB130702A_MAO_R_lc.png One can see flattening of the lc after 4 days (initially reported by Butler et al., GCN 14993) and possible re-brightening on 6.6 days which can confirm re-brightening of the afterglow (Schulze et al., GCN 14994) and emerging supernova.
