TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40844 SUBJECT: Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor trigger 772647532/250626680 is not a GRB DATE: 25/06/26 17:15:57 GMT FROM: eliza.neights(a)gmail.com E. Neights (GWU, NASA GSFC) reports on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team: "The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) trigger 772647532/250626680 at 16:18:47.72 UT on 26 June 2025, tentatively classified as a GRB, is in fact not due to a GRB. This trigger is likely due to local particles."

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40842 SUBJECT: GRB 250625A: SVOM/C-GFT upper limit in early phase DATE: 25/06/26 15:29:45 GMT FROM: SVOM_group <svomgroup(a)bao.ac.cn> Chao WU (NAOC), Zhe Kang (CHO), Liping Xin(NAOC), Xuhui Han(NAOC), Pinpin Zhang (NAOC), Xiaomeng Lu (NAOC), Zhenwei Li (CHO), You Lv (CHO), Ruosong Zhang (NAOC), Yujie Xiao(NAOC), Yulei, Qiu(NAOC), Jing Wang (NAOC), Jinsong Deng(NAOC), Lei Huang(NAOC), Jianyan Wei (NAOC), report on behalf of the SVOM/C-GFT team: We observed the field of GRB 250625A detected by Swift-BAT（Ferro et al., GCN 40825) and Fermi-GBM (GCN 40824) with LATIOS on SVOM/C-GFT. Observations started at 2025-06-25T16:06:18 UTC, ~82 seconds after the trigger. A series of g, r, and i band images were obtained. The optical afterglow reported by Moskvitin et al. (GCN 40828), Xin et al. (GCN 40830), Zhu et al. (GCN 40834), Fortin et al. (GCN 40837), Adami et al. (GCN 40838) and Brosio et al. (GCN 40839) is not detected in the images after preliminary processing. The three sigma upper limits are: | date-obs|mid-time | exposure time (s) | band | upper limit (AB) | |--------------------|-------------------|------|-------------------| |2025-06-25T16:08:18 | 170 | i | 20.00 | |2025-06-25T16:27:53 | 180 | g | 20.59 | |2025-06-25T16:31:28 | 180 | r | 20.52 | The photometry was calibrated with nearby UCAC4 catalogue. This result is consistent with the report by Breeveld & Ferro (GCN 40840). We thank the observation assistants Chunlei Guo and Shuai Liu at Jilin observatory for their excellent support. The Chinese Ground Follow-up Telescope (C-GFT) for the SVOM mission is located at Jilin Station, Changchun Observatory, National Astronomical Observatories, CAS. It features two instruments: (1) CATCH at the Cassegrain focus with a 21 arcsec x 21 arcsec FOV for simultaneous g/r/i-band imaging, and (2) LATIOS, a 4k x 4k CMOS camera at the prime focus with a 1.28 deg x 1.28 deg FOV that images in g, r, and i bands via filter switching.

TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 40841 SUBJECT: GRB 250625A: GECAM-B detection DATE: 25/06/26 14:18:47 GMT FROM: Chenwei Wang at IHEP <cwwang(a)ihep.ac.cn> Chen-Wei Wang, Shao-Lin Xiong (IHEP) report on behalf of GECAM team: GECAM-B was triggered on-ground by GRB 250625A at 2025-06-25T16:04:56 UTC (denoted as T0), which is also detected by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN#40824), Swift/BAT (David Palmer et al., GCN#40825), Fermi/LAT (Davide Depalo et al., GCN#40836). According to the GECAM-B light curves in about 40-6000 keV, this burst mainly consists of a single pulse with a duration (T90) of 6.0 +3.5/-5.5 s. The GECAM-B light curve can be found here: https://www.bursthub.cn//admin/static/gecamgrb250625A.png The time-averaged spectrum from T0 to T0+4 s is best fitted by a power law function. The power law index is -1.52 +0.29/-0.20. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (1.39 +/-0.24)E-06 erg/cm^2. Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) mission originally consists of two micro-satellites (GECAM-A and GECAM-B) launched in Dec. 2020. As the third member of GECAM constellation, GECAM-C was launched onboard SATech-01 experimental satellite in July 2022. GECAM mission is funded by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

The mid-exposure time was 20:21:42 UT, and the final exposure ended at 21:09:59 UT. From photometry, we detect the optical counterpart in our images at the at the following coordinates: R.A (J2000.0) = 17:26:01.56 Dec. (J2000.0) = +22 16 12.3 The measured magnitude is: V = 21.13 +/- 0.28 with SNR 5.4 (AB, calibrated against the Pan-STARRS catalogue on SIMBAD).

Dennefeld (IAP/CNRS/Sorbonne U.), report on behalf of a larger collaboration: We observed the field of the GRB 250625A (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 40824; Ferro et al., GCN 40825; Beardmore et al., GCN 40827; Dichiara et al., GCN 40835; Di Lalla et al., GCN 40836) using the T193cm telescope at Observatoire de Haute-Provence (France) equipped with the MISTRAL spectro-imager. We obtained 8 exposures (for a total of 81min) in the r-band starting at 20:34:39 UT on 2025-06-25 (4.50 hours after the trigger). We also obtained 2 exposures (for a total of 30min) in the i-band starting at 22:28:55 UT on 2025-06-25 (6.40 hours after the trigger). In the stacked images, we detected the optical counterpart reported/followed by Moskvitin et al., GCN 40828, Xin et al., GCN 40830; Malesani et al., GCN 40831; Lipunov et al., GCN 40826/40832; Zhu et al., GCN 40834, Fortin et al., GCN 40837; in the r-band image. The preliminary magnitude derived for that source is: r = 22.95 +/- 0.23 mag (AB) We do not detect the optical counterpart in the i-band image with a 3-sigma upper limit of: i < 22.2 The photometric calibration was performed using nearby stars from the PanSTARRS catalog and the magnitudes are not corrected for Galactic extinction. We used the STDWeb/STDPipe tools (Karpov 2025). We acknowledge the excellent support from the Observatoire de Haute-Provence and in particular Jean Balcaen and R.P. Nelson for the MISTRAL observations.
