We observed the field of SVOM/ECLAIRs GRB 250327B (Bouchet et al. GCN Circ. 39888) with the DDRAGO wide-field imager on the COLIBRÍ telescope at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir in Mexico.
We obtained 50 minutes of exposure in the i filter from 2025-03-29 03:49 and 11:32 (44.3 and 52.0 hours after the trigger). Our observations were not continuous, but rather were at the start and end of this interval with a long interruption for observations of other sources. We observed through thick clouds.
The data were coadded with the COLIBRI pipeline and analysed in STDWeb/STDPipe (Karpov 2021). The photometric calibration was performed using nearby stars from the Pan-STARRS DR1 catalog and the magnitude is not corrected for Galactic extinction.
At the position of the previously reported optical transient (Moskvitin et al., GCN Circ. 39889; Xin et al., GCN Circ. 39890; O’Neill et al., GCN Circ. 39891; Malesani et al., GCN Circ. 39893; Lian et al., GCN Circ. 39894; Page et al., GCN Circ. 39895; Shrestha et al., GCN Circ. 39896; Perley & Bochenek, GCN Circ. 39902; Kumar et al., GCN Circ. 39904; Dennefeld et al., GCN Circ. 39905; Pankov et al., GCN Circ. 39906; Pérez-Fournon et al., GCN Circ. 39912; Tarasenkov et al., GCN Circ. 39913; Mo et al., GCN Circ. 39914), we detect a source with
i = 22.23 +/- 0.15.
Compared to our previous observation at about 7.65 hours after the trigger, the temporal decay index is about -1.0.
We acknowledge the excellent support of the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir and thank the COLIBRÍ and DDRAGO engineering teams.
