We observe the field of the IceCube-250421A (bronze) event with the DDOTI/OAN wide-field imager at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra of San Pedro Martir (http://ddoti.astroscu.unam.mx) on the night of 2025-04-22 UTC.
DDOTI automatically pointed to the region centred in RA, Dec (J2000)= 16:03:46.49 +28:43:50.8, covering about 96% of the IceCube error region. DDOTI observed from 04:50 UTC to 11:47 UTC (from T+ 11.74 h to T+ 18.69 h after the trigger) with a total exposure of 3.5 hours, alternating with other scientific programs.
Comparing our observations to the USNO-B1 and PanSTARRS PS1 DR2 catalogues, we detect the candidate reported by SN 2025cbj at w=18.53+/0.04, consistent with the observations from the Large Array Survey Telescope (Garrappa et al., GCN Circ. 40208).
No other uncatalogued sources within the observed field to an average 10-sigma limiting AB magnitude of:
w > 20.7
This value is not corrected for the Galactic extinction.
We thank the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra of San Pedro Mártir.
