S.Q. Jiang, Z.P. Zhu, X. Liu, J. An, D. Xu (NAOC), S.Y. Fu (HUST), J.Z. Liu (XAO) report on behalf of a large collaboration:
We observed the field of GRB 250403A detected by SVOM/ECLAIRs (Julakanti et al., GCN 40026) and Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM team, GCN 40025), using the 100cm-C telescope (100C) of the JinShan project, located at Altay, Xinjiang, China. Observations started at 18:03:34.11 UT on 2025-04-03, i.e., 2.80 hr after the SVOM/ECLAIRs trigger, and a series of 600 s frames were obtained in the Sloan r- and i- bands.
The optical afterglow (Starling et al., GCN 40028; Wu et al., GCN 40029; Du et al., GCN 40031; Li et al., GCN 40032; Julakanti et al., GCN 40034; Ghosh et al., GCN 40039) of GRB 250403A is clearly detected in our stacked images. Preliminary photometry results are as follows:
T_mid(hr) Filter Mag(AB) MagErr 4.06 r 19.77 0.05 4.73 i 20.11 0.06
calibrated with nearby Legacy Survey stars and not corrected for Galactic extinction.
We acknowledge the excellent support from T.Q. Chen and Z.K. Feng for enabling these observations.
