TITLE: GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT NUMBER: 1283 SUBJECT: GRB020305: NIR observations DATE: 02/03/21 14:36:13 GMT FROM: Ingunn Burud at Space Telescope Science Inst <burud@stsci.edu> I. Burud, J. Rhoads, A. Fruchter, D. Griep We observed the location of the candidate OT of GRB020305 on 2002 March 13.43 and 14.39 in the K' filter with the NASA IRTF + NSFCam. A source is found at the location of the afterglow reported by Price et al. (GCN 1267) with estimated magnitudes K' = 19.7 and K'=19.8 on March 13.43 and March 14.39 respectively. The photometric uncertainty is estimated to be 0.2 mag. For the star U0750_07926230 located 7.5 arcsec South and 12.1 arcsec East of the OT we measure a magnitude K'= 13.53 +/- 0.04.
