TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 42870 SUBJECT: GRB 251126A: further SAO RAS optical observations DATE: 25/11/28 12:46:09 GMT FROM: Alexander Moskvitin at SAO RAS <mosk@sao.ru> A. Moskvitin (SAO RAS), V. Goranskij (SAI MSU, SAO RAS), V. S. Shergin (SAO RAS), A. A. Volnova (IKI), A. S. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of IKI-GRB-FuN and GRB follow-up team. We observed the field of the Swift GRB 251126A (Caputo et al., GCN 42843; Evans, GCN 42845; Goad et al., GCN 42851; Page et al., GCN 42860) with the Zeiss-1000 1m telescope of the SAO RAS on November 27/28 night. We obtained two series of 300 sec. images in Rc band under a good weather conditions and seeing (FWHM) ~1".5. The optical afterglow (Swain, GCN 42844; Fu et al., GCN 42848; Reguitti et al., GCN 42849; Broens et al., GCN 42850; Anguloet al., GCN 42855; Pulido-Torres et al; GCN 42856; Gupta et al., GCN 42857; Cotter et al., GCN 42858; Seki et al., GCN 42859; Volnova et al., GCN 42861; Breeveld and Caputo, GCN 42863; Gupta et al., GCN 42864; Burkhonov et al., GCN 42866; Maksut et al., GCN 42868) is clearly detected in the stacked frames. The preliminary results are as following. Date UT start t-T0 Exp. Filter OT Err.
