TITLE: GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT NUMBER: 3541 SUBJECT: GRB 050607: MDM Observation DATE: 05/06/09 16:44:29 GMT FROM: Jules Halpern at Columbia U. J. P. Halpern (Columbia), J. Kemp (Joint Astronomy Centre and Columbia), and N. Mirabal (U. Michigan), report on behalf of the MDM Observatory GRB follow-up team: We reobserved the afterglow of GRB 050607 in the R band with the MDM 2.4m telescope for 30 minutes starting on June 8 08:15 UT, 23 hr after the burst. Seeing was approximately 1.1", similar to the previous night. An upper limit of R > 24.0 for a point source is found at the position of the afterglow. The possible host galaxy (Rhoads, GCN #3540) would be difficult to quantify in our image due to the nearby bright star. See http://www.astro.columbia.edu/~jules/grb/050607/
