SUBJECT: LIGO/VIRGO G298048: MeerKAT observations of SSS17a

S. Goedhart (SKA South Africa) reports on behalf of a larger team:

MeerKAT, currently being commissioned, observed the location of SSS17a (Coulter et al. 2017, LVC GCN 21529) in L band between 2017-08-25 and 2017-09-06. Preliminary analysis of the observation from 2017-09-06 does not reveal a radio afterglow, with a 3-sigma upper limit of 75 uJy at 1.5 GHz. Further observations and analysis are planned.

We thank the SKA South Africa team for enabling these observations.
