YoungPyo Hong (SNU ARC/SNU), Donggeun Tak (SNU ARC/SNU), Myungshin Im (SNU ARC/SNU), Hyeonho Choi (SNU ARC/SNU), Seo-Won Chang (SNU ARC/SNU), and Ji Hoon Kim (SNU ARC/SNU) report on behalf of the 7-Dimensional Sky Survey team:
At 2025-10-14T00:02:30 UTC (about 6 hours after the GRB), we observed the optical counterpart of GRB 251013C (Fermi GBM team GCN 42221, Rakotondrainibe et al. GCN 42222), first reported by SVOM/VT (Palmerio et al. GCN 42223) using 7-Dimensional Telescope (7DT) at the El Sauce Observatory in Chile. Observations were made with 10 7DT units in g, r, i-band and 14 medium-band filters, in which the numeric values indicate their central wavelengths in nanometers. Each medium-band filter has a bandwidth of 25nm.
The counterpart was detected at the following position:
RA(J2000) = 345.8356 (deg) / 23h03m20.54s
RA(J2000) = -0.2103 (deg) / -00°12'37.08"
We report our photometry result with 14 medium-band and g, r, i band filters:

Photometric flux calibration was performed using synthetic photometry based on the Gaia DR3 XP catalog (Gaia Collaboration et al. 2022) within the AB magnitude system. This is based on preliminary photometry, and no extinction correction has been applied.
The 7-Dimensional Telescope (7DT), located in Chile and comprising 20 wide-field telescopes equipped with 40 medium-bandwidth (~25nm) filters, aims to detect optical counterparts of GW sources and conduct the 7-Dimensional Sky Survey (7DS) of the Southern Hemisphere. Further information about the 7DT is available at [http://7ds.snu.ac.kr/](http://7ds.snu.ac.kr/).
