Description

Preliminary results of an extended program of examination of the Ondrejov and Sonneberg plate collections for possible optical counterparts to gamma-ray bursters are presented. One optical image was found on 3 different plates in the same position suggesting it may be related to the 25 B March 1979 gamma-ray burster. Results of both archival and time-correlated searches are discussed for GRBS and for the Perseus Flasher. (author). 13 refs
