TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 15002 SUBJECT: GMRT radio detection of GRB 130702A DATE: 13/07/11 10:30:07 GMT FROM: Poonam Chandra at TIFR Poonam Chandra (NCRA-TIFR) reports: We carried out Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) observations of GRB 130702A at 1390 and 610 MHz bands on 2013 July 10.54 UT and 10.72 UT, respectively. We detect the radio afterglow of the GRB in both bands. The 1390 MHz band flux density of the afterglow is 792+/-44 uJy and 610 MHz flux density of the afterglow is 457+/-75 uJy. The map resolutions at 1390 and 610 MHz bands are 2.67"x2.26" and 8.91"x5.50", respectively. Further observations are planned. We thank GMRT staff for making these observations possible. -- ********************************************************************** Poonam Chandra Phone: +91 20 2571 9290 Tata Institute of Fundamental Research Email: poonam@ncra.tifr.res.in National Center for Radio Astrophysics Home: ncra.tifr.res.in/~poonam Post Bag 3, Pune University campus Ganeshkhind, Pune 411 008, INDIA
