Scientific paper

The AEOS Burst Camera (ABC) has been funded for development and construction by the National Science Foundation and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. The ABC will provide rapid, deep observations of gamma-ray burst (GRB) optical counterparts. The camera is expected to be installed on the 3.67 meter AEOS telescope, at the Air Force Maui Optical and Supercomputing (AMOS) site in mid-2002, with operations to commence shortly thereafter. We expect to conduct 10-15 observations of GRB optical counterparts per year. We describe the design of the camera, and the planned mode of rapid GRB counterpart observation to be conducted at the AMOS facility.
