MASTER-NET reports on enhanced optical activity of the flaring FSRQ PMN J1903-
6749 as reported by the Fermi-LAT Collaboration (Angioni et al. ATEL #13767).
MASTER-OAFA and MASTER-SAAO observed this object at the beginning and the end of the day
of the gamma-ray flare.
We obtain three frames on which the object is clearly visible, although the
second one has heavily distorted objects.
Date | Time UTC | magnitude | Filter | Facility
2020-05-27 | 00:55:44 | 16.03 | C | MASTER-OAFA
2020-05-27 | 20:36:15 | 15.41 | C | MASTER-SAAO
2020-05-28 | 03:31:24 | 14.38 | C | MASTER-OAFA
We used GAIA catalog for flux calibration.
We conclude that during the gamma-ray flare object experienced an optical flare with an amplitude
of at least 1.6 magnitude.
We encourage further multi-wavelength support of this object.
