TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 18098 SUBJECT: GRB 150728A: Continued RATIR Optical Observations DATE: 15/07/31 17:52:51 GMT FROM: Alan M. Watson at Instituto de Astronomia UNAM Alan M. Watson (UNAM), Nat Butler (ASU), Alexander Kutyrev (GSFC), William H. Lee (UNAM), Michael G. Richer (UNAM), Chris Klein (UCB), Ori Fox (UCB), J. Xavier Prochaska (UCSC), Josh Bloom (UCB), Antonino Cucchiara (ORAU/GSFC), Eleonora Troja (GSFC), Owen Littlejohns (ASU), Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz (UCSC), José A. de Diego (UNAM), Leonid Georgiev (UNAM), Jesús González (UNAM), Carlos Román-Zúñiga (UNAM), Neil Gehrels (GSFC), and Harvey Moseley (GSFC) report: We observed the field of GRB 150728A (Krimm et al., GCN 18087) with the Reionization and Transients Infrared Camera (RATIR; www.ratir.org) on the 1.5m Harold Johnson Telescope at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on Sierra San Pedro Mártir from 2015/07 31.22 to 2015/07 31.46 UTC (64.53 to 70.24 hours after the BAT trigger), obtaining a total of 3.60 hours exposure in the r, i, and z bands. For source A of Watson et al. (GCN 18096), we determine: r 21.26 ± 0.04 i 20.90 ± 0.04 z 19.43 ± 0.13 For source B of Watson et al. (GCN 18096), we determine: r 20.91 ± 0.04 i 20.70 ± 0.04 z 20.48 ± 0.31 These magnitudes are in comparison with the USNO-B1 and 2MASS catalogs, are in the AB system, and are not corrected for Galactic extinction in the direction of the GRB. Our source A appears to correspond to the source reported by Dichiara et al. (GCN 18090). If this association is correct, then there is little evidence for fading between observations at about 1 hour, 16-23 hours, and 65-70 hours. This is in contrast to the suggestion of Mazaeva et al. (GCN 18097), who suggested that source A might indeed be the fading afterglow on the basis of a 3-sigma non-detection at 30 hours. Similarly, there is little evidence for fading of source B between 16-23 hours and 65-70 hours. We thank the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional in San Pedro Mártir.
