TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 34874 SUBJECT: The photometry of the transient in Messier 31 field: GMG observation DATE: 23/10/24 01:51:10 GMT FROM: Rui-Zhi Li at Yunnan Astronomical Observatory, CAS R.-Z. Li, B.-T. Wang, J. Mao, X.-L. Zhang, J.-J. Zhang, and J.-M. Bai (YNAO) report: We followed the GCN circular on the discovery of an optical transient as a new blazar candidate in the Messier 31 field (Gianluca et al. GCN 34819). We observed the transient with the 2.4-meter optical telescope at Gao-Mei-Gu (GMG) station of Yunnan Observatories.
