TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 8675 SUBJECT: GRB 081118: Zadko observations DATE: 08/12/16 01:27:18 GMT FROM: David Coward at U of Western Aus. Subject: GRB 081118: Zadko observations From: D.M Coward at UWA D.M. Coward, T. Vaalsta, J. Zadko, A. Imerito, D. Blair, R. Burman, P. Lucas, S. Gordon, K. Frost, A. Fletcher (University of Western Australia) M. Todd, M. Zadnik (Curtin University) M. Boer, A. Klotz (TAROT) On 18 Nov, the Zadko Telescope team observed the XRT field of GRB 081118 reported by P. Evans (GCN 8525) using the 1 meter Zadko Telescope (in very early commissioning mode). Imaging commenced approx 1.96 hr post burst trigger using an unfiltered integrating CCD video camera and continued over a period of 1 hr. The OA candidate reported by GCN 8529 is seen in a selected stack of 40 x 5 second exposures, though it is near the detection limit. We do not have absolute standard star photometric calibration. Using nearby USNO-B1 stars we estimate the limiting magnitude of the OA to be in the range 20.9 +- 0.5. This message is quotable in publications. David Coward and Timo Vaalsta report on behalf of the UWA Zadko Telescope Team.
