T. Laskar (University of Utah), C. Christy, N. Franz, K. D. Alexander (University of Arizona), E. Berger (Harvard University), R. Chornock (UC Berkeley), H. J. van Eerten (University of Bath), G. Farley (U. Utah), W. Fong (Northwestern University), R. Gill (UNAM), J. Granot (Open University), R. Margutti (UC Berkeley), and P. Schady (University of Bath) report:
“We observed GRB 251013C (Fermi GBM team, GCN 42221; Rakotondrainibe et al., GCN 42222) with the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA) at 97.5 GHz beginning on 2025 October 13 at 23:07 UT (5.5 hours after the burst).
Preliminary analysis reveals a mm source with flux density of ~ 0.3 mJy at position:
RA (J2000) = 23:03:20.56
Dec (J2000) = -00:12:37.21
with an uncertainty of 0.02" in each coordinate. This is consistent with the X-ray position (Rakotondrainibe et al., GCN 42222; Evans et al., GCN 42232) and optical position (Palmerio et al., GCN 42223; Masi et al., GCN 42228). Further observations are planned.
We thank the NAASC staff, P2G, AoD, JAO staff, and the entire ALMA team for their help with these observations."

We imaged the field of the SVOM GRB 251013C (Rakotondrainibe et al., GCN Circ. 42222) using the DDRAGO wide-field imager on the SVOM/COLIBRÍ (FM-GFT) telescope. We obtained a 60 seconds exposure in the r filter starting at 2025-10-14 02:18 (8.65 hours after the trigger).
The image was analyzed with STDWeb/STDPipe (Karpov 2025). The photometry was calibrated using nearby stars from the PanSTARRS catalog, is in the AB system, and is not corrected for Galactic extinction.
We detected the optical counterpart, (Palmerio et al., GCN Circ. 42223; Perez-Garcia et al., GCN Circ. 42225; Konno et al., GCN Circ. 42226; Martin-Carrillo et al., GCN Circ. 42227; Masi et al., GCN Circ. 42228; Palmerio et al., GCN Circ. 42229; Moskvitin et al., GCN Circ. 42230; Gompertz et al., GCN Circ. 42231; Lipunov et al., GCN Circ. 42235; and Garnavich et al., GCN Circ. 42240; Watson et al. GCN Circ. 42241) with a preliminary magnitude of:
r = 18.50 +/- 0.03
Compared to the observation reported by Garnevich (GCN Circ. 42240), our observation suggests an abrupt fading between 6.4 and 8.7 hours.
Further observations and analysis are ongoing.
We thank the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir and the COLIBRÍ and DDRAGO engineering teams.
COLIBRÍ is an astronomical observatory developed and operated jointly by France (AMU, CNES and CNRS) and Mexico (UNAM and SECIHTI). It is located at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir, Baja California, Mexico.

We observed the field of GRB 251013C detected by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN Circ. 42221) and SVOM/ECLAIRS (Rakotondrainibe et al., GCN Circ. 42222) with the DDOTI wide-field imager at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on Sierra San Pedro Mártir (http://ddoti.astroscu.unam.mx) from 2025-10-14 02:41 to 03:08 (8.80 to 9.45 hours after the trigger) and obtained a total of 23 minutes of exposure in the w filter.
We detect the optical afterglow (Palmerio et al., GCN Circ. 42223; Perez-Garcia et al., GCN Circ. 42225; Konno et al., GCN Circ. 42226; Martin-Carrillo et al., GCN Circ. 42227; Masi et al., GCN Circ. 42228; Palmerio et al., GCN Circ. 42229; Moskvitin et al., GCN Circ. 42230; Gompertz et al., GCN Circ. 42231; Lipunov et al., GCN Circ. 42235; and Garnavich et al., GCN Circ. 42240) with a preliminary magnitude of
w = 18.95 +/- 0.04
Our photometry is calibrated against the USNO-B1 and Pan-STARRS PS1 DR2 catalogues and is not corrected for Galactic extinction.
Observations are continuing.
We thank the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional at the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir for their excellent support.

DATE: 25/10/14 02:43:16 GMT
FROM: Peter Garnavich at U of Notre Dame <pgarnavi(a)nd.edu>
P. Garnavich (University of Notre Dame) reports:
The Sarah L. Krizmanich Telescope (SLKT) obtained unfiltered observations of the SVOM/ECLAIRs source
GRB 251013C (Rakotondrainibe et al., GCN 42222). Imaging was centered at 2025 October 14.002 (UT) which was 6.4 hours after the GRB trigger. Exposures totaled 320s and the afterglow was clearly detected.
Compared to the nearby star at 23:03:20.64 -00:10:13.8 (2000) with a SDSS magnitude of r=14.40 mag,
the afterglow had a brightness of r=17.48+/-0.06 mag.

SUBJECT: GRB 251014A: Swift detection of a possibly-short burst
DATE: 25/10/14 00:42:58 GMT
FROM: David Palmer at LANL <palmer(a)lanl.gov>
E. Ambrosi (INAF-IASFPA), V. D'Elia (SSDC & INAF-OAR),
R. Gupta (NASA GSFC) and D. M. Palmer (LANL) report on behalf of the
Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Team:
At 00:28:30 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
located GRB 251014A (trigger=1403878). Swift did not slew immediately
due to an observation constraint.
The BAT on-board calculated location is
RA, Dec 111.732, +6.415 which is
RA(J2000) = 07h 26m 56s
Dec(J2000) = +06d 24' 54"
with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including
systematic uncertainty). The BAT light curve showed a single peak
structure with a duration of about 1.5 sec. The peak count rate
was ~3000 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~0 sec after the trigger.
Due to a Moon observing constraint, Swift cannot slew to the BAT
position until 21:52 UT on 2025 October 14. There will thus be no XRT
or UVOT data for this trigger before this time.
Burst Advocate for this burst is E. Ambrosi (elena.ambrosi AT inaf.it).
Please contact the BA by email if you require additional information
regarding Swift followup of this burst. In extremely urgent cases, after
trying the Burst Advocate, you can contact the Swift PI by phone (see
Swift TOO web site for information: http://www.swift.psu.edu/)
