TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 16951 SUBJECT: GRB 141026A: P60 early observations DATE: 14/10/26 04:07:01 GMT FROM: Daniel Perley at Caltech D. A. Perley (Caltech) reports on behalf of a larger collaboration: The Palomar 60-inch telescope automatically responded to the alert for GRB 141026A (Hagen et al, GCN 16950) and began imaging the field at 02:41:55.320 UT, 5.07 minutes after the Swift trigger. A sequence of 60-second r, i, and z exposures was obtained. The field was at high airmass (~3.3) at the start of the observations. We do not detect any clear source inside the XRT error circle in the individual exposures. After stacking the first 11 frames taken in each filter, in the r-band stack only there is a marginal detection of a possible source at RA = 02:56:19.885, dec = +26:55:35.80 with R~22 mag. Observations are continuing and additional follow-up is planned.
