TITLE: GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT NUMBER: 1615 SUBJECT: GRB 021004: Optical measurement at OHP DATE: 02/10/10 07:32:26 GMT FROM: Michel Boer at CESR-CNRS A. Klotz and M. Boer CESR/CNRS (Toulouse, France), and W. Thuillot IMCCE/BDL Paris, France report the following data on GRB 021004 obtained with the 1.20 meter telescope at the OHP/CNRS (Observatoire de Haute Provence - France). Images were R-cousin filtered. Each measurement image results of co-addition of 4 frames of 40s (dark and flat corrected). Magnitudes are computed compared to the USNO star at 00:26:58.713 +18:56:56.61 (Fox et al. GCN 1564) assuming R=15.64. Magnitudes of GRB021004 : (R band) 2002 oct. 04 22:04:44.5 UT (JD=2452552.41996) : 18.29 2002 oct. 04 22:12:01.7 UT (JD=2452552.42502) : 18.37 2002 oct. 04 22:20:32.3 UT (JD=2452552.43093) : 18.40 2002 oct. 04 23:51:04.3 UT (JD=2452552.49380) : 18.67 2002 oct. 04 23:57:13.2 UT (JD=2452552.49807) : 18.65 Dates are middle of exposures. This data fill nicely a gap around T0 + 0.4 when the decay index of the light curve increases.
