We observed the field of the SVOM/ECLAIRs-detected burst GRB 240828B (Le Provost et al., GCN 37318) starting at 16:14:47 UT, August 28, 2024, ~3.06 hr after the burst trigger with C-GFT (Chinese Ground Follow-up Telescope in SVOM mission) in System Test Mode (STM). C-GFT is located at Jilin (long.=126.33 deg, lat.= 43.8243778 deg), Changchun Observatory, National Astronomical Observatories, CAS. It has FOV of 1.28 deg x 1.28 deg with a 4k*4k CMOS detector mounted on the primary focus of 1.2-meter-aperure telescope.
A series of g ,r, and i band images were obtained. We obtained stacked images of g: 249x10s, r: 232x 10s and i: 244x10s. No optical counterpart candidate was detected within the X-ray afterglow error circles (Page et al. GCN 37334) down to the limiting magnitude of mag_g=19.7, mag_r=19.2, and mag_i=20.1 . It is consistent with the results reported by Zheng et al.(GCN 37345) and Moskvitin et al. (GCN 37346).
The photometry was calibrated with nearby Pan-STARRS 1 catalogs.
We thank the observation assistant Chunlei Guo at Jilin observatory for their excellent support.
