Abstract (from CDS):

We present results from the Target of Opportunity (TOO) program to observe GRB locations with the CAM and PHOT instruments aboard the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). Four BeppoSAX GRB error circles were observed by ISO on timescales ranging from days to months after the GRB events. These observations represent the first prompt GRB counterpart searches at far-infrared wavelengths. A list of observations made in this TOO program, along with results of CAM follow-up observations of GRB 970508, are presented. A marginal CAM (12 µm) detection of a source, consistent with the position of the optical transient of GRB 970508, is reported.
