TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 9811 SUBJECT: GRB 090813: CrAO optical obsevations DATE: 09/08/15 09:29:00 GMT FROM: Alexei Pozanenko at IKI, Moscow A. Volnova (SAI MSU), E. Pavlenko, O. Antoniuk, V. Rumyantsev (CrAO), A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration: We observed the field of the Swift GRB 090813 (Cummings et al. GCN 9781) starting (UT) Aug. 13 23:57:26 with Shajn telescope of CrAO under favorable weather condition and seeing ~1.6". At the place of optical afterglow (Gorosabel et al. GCN 9782; Cenko et al. GCN 9783; Smith et al. GCN 9784) we detect a source which appears slightly E-W extended. Preliminary photometry of the source in a combined image based on USNO-B1.0 star (RA(J2000)=15:02:47.99, Dec(J2000)=88:31:41.4) assuming R= 14.23 is following: T0+ Filter, Exposure, mag., err. (d) (s) 0.8440 R 57x60 20.50 +/-0.06 Observations will be continued.
