R.-Z. Li, B.-T. Wang, F.-F. Song, J. Mao, H.-C. Feng and J.-M. Bai (YNAO, CAS) report:
We observed the field of GRB 241217A (Marius et al., GCN 38594, T0 at 2024-12-17T16:57:13) using the GMG-2.4m telescope at the Lijiang Observatory. The observation began at 2024-12-17T17:30:55, about 0.56 hours after the trigger.
No new uncataloged optical source was detected within the SVOM/VT error circle (GCN 38600).
The preliminary analysis results are shown as follows:
+----------------+------------+----------+----------------+
| Tmid-T0 [hr] | Exp. [s] | Filter | 5-sigma U.L. |
+================+============+==========+================+
| 0.65 | 600 | r | 20.6 |
+----------------+------------+----------+----------------+
The given magnitudes are derived based on calibrating against Pan-STARRS1 field stars.
