TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 31431 SUBJECT: GRB 220107A: SAO RAS optical observations DATE: 22/01/11 05:08:48 GMT FROM: Moskvitin Alexander at SAO RAS A. Moskvitin (SAO), on behalf of larger GRB follow-up team report: We observed the field of GRB 220107A (The Fermi GBM team, GCN 31399; Kunzweiler et al. GCN 31400; DeLaunay et al. GCN 31402; Suresh et al., GCN 31408; Ridnaia et al., GCN 31429) with the SAO RAS 1-m telescope Zeiss-1000 + CCD-photometer. Two series of images in Rc band were obtained: the 1st under moderate weather conditions and the 2nd with relatively clear sky. The OT (Hosokawa et al. GCN 31413; Siegel GCN 31415; Zhu et al. GCN 31416; Pankov et al., GCN 31419; Moskvitin et al., GCN 31422; Castro-Tirado et al., GCN 31423, Moskvitin & Medvedev, GCN 31426) is clearly visible in the stacked frames. Preliminary photometry of the afterglow is as follows (based on nearby SDSS-DR12 stars mentioned in GCNs 31422, 31426).
