P. Garnavich (University of Notre Dame) reports:
The Sarah L. Krizmanich Telescope (SLKT) obtained unfiltered observations of the SVOM/ECLAIRs source
GRB 251013C (Rakotondrainibe et al., GCN 42222). Imaging was centered at 2025 October 14.002 (UT) which was 6.4 hours after the GRB trigger. Exposures totaled 320s and the afterglow was clearly detected.
Compared to the nearby star at 23:03:20.64 -00:10:13.8 (2000) with a SDSS magnitude of r=14.40 mag,
the afterglow had a brightness of r=17.48+/-0.06 mag.
