TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 6662 SUBJECT: GRB 070724: IR observations DATE: 07/07/24 20:50:02 GMT FROM: Andrew Levan at U.of Leicester A.J. Levan (Warwick), N.R. Tanvir (Leicester), C. Davis (JAC) report on behalf of a large collaboration: We observed the location of GRB 070724 in the K-band using UKIRT. Two epochs were obtained beginning at 13:11 UT and 14:02 UT. We clearly detect the object refered to by (Bloom GCNC 6658), and confirm that it is indeed a galaxy. We find no evidence of variability within the galaxy between the two observations. No other objects are detected within the refined XRT error circles of Page & Ziaeepour (GCNC 6659) or Bloom & Butler (GCNC 6661). Further observations are planned.
