Description
This paper presents data on the simultaneous and complementary
observations of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) GRB 161017A for optical,
X-ray, and gamma wavelengths obtained by the Russian multi-messenger
Lomonosov space observatory and supplemented by additional data from the
Swift satellite as well as the ground-based MASTER Global Robotic Net
and the 10 m Gran Telescopio Canarias. Multifrequency spectra of this
very powerful explosion indicate that it originated at a distance of 10
billion light years from Earth. Here, we present the results of the
prompt, early, and afterglow optical observations. The light curves and
spectra suggest that the prompt optical and high-energy emissions occur
in the same region near the GRB source.
