Scientific paper

We are constructing a 0.6 meter telescope system to search for early time gamma-ray burst (GRB) optical counterparts. Super-LOTIS (Super-Livermore Optical Transient Imaging System) is an automated telescope system that has a 0.8°×0.8° field-of-view, is sensitive to Mv~19 and responds to a burst trigger within 5 min. This telescope will record images of the gamma-ray burst coordinates that are given by the GCN (GRB Coordinate Network). A measurement of GRB light curves at early times will greatly enhance our understanding of GRB physics.
