Members of:
GRB/UAI - Gamma ray Burst section of Unione Astrofili Italiani.

In a large collaboration with:
M.G. Dainotti (National Astronomical Observatory of Japan),
Y. Niino (Tokyo University, Institute of Astronomy),
K. Kalinowski (Aarhus University, Department of Physics and Astronomy),
report:

We imaged the field of GRB 251013C detected by SVOM (Rakotondrainibe et al., GCN 42222), with the robotic telescope of (IAU station 565) Bassano Bresciano Observatory, Italy .

The observations started 1h 47m after the trigger with our Newton telescope D=440 mm F/D=4.5.

We co-added series of 10 exposures of 30 sec each.

We clearly detect a bright afterglow  reported by GCNs (Konno et al. (GCN circ. 42226), Perez-Garcia et al. (GCN circ. 42225), Martin-Carrillo et al. (GCN circ. 42227), Masi (GCN circ. 42228), Palmerio et al. (GCN circ. 42229), Moskvitin et al. (GCN circ. 42230), Gompertz et al. (GCN circ. 42231), Watson et al. (GCN circ. 42241), López-Cámara et al. (GCN circ. 42242), Zhang et al. (GCN circ. 42248), Brosio et al. (GCN circ. 42251), Quintana-Ansaldo et al. (GCN circ. 42254), and Maksut et al. (GCN circ. 42256))  at the following position (+/- 3 arcsec):

RA (J2000.0) =   23 03 20.5
DEC(J2000.0) =  -00 12 37

We report our photometry analysis:

CR magnitude is unfiltered with R zero point.

Magnitudes were estimated with the pan-STARRS cat and are derived using Lupton (2005) equations.

Not corrected for galactic dust extinction.
