A. Bochenek, D. A. Perley (LJMU), report:
We observed the field of GRB 251205A (Lanava et al., GCN 43005) using the IO:O optical camera on the 2m robotic Liverpool Telescope. We obtained 4x100s exposures in the SDSS i and r filters starting at 2025-12-08 05:21:03 UT, approximately 2.24 days after trigger.
We report detections in the stacked images of both filters, at the position first reported by Lanava et al., GCN 43005:
MJD (mid) T_mid-T_0 Filter Mag. (AB)
61017.22543 53.8 h i 21.02 ± 0.19
61017.23156 53.9 h r 21.14 ± 0.26
The photometry was obtained using nearby PanSTARRS secondary standards and was not corrected for extinction. The photometry is consistent with late-time optical measurements by Mandarakas et al., GCN 43011; Pérez-Fournon et al., GCN 43020; Bochenek & Perley, GCN 43024; and Hagio et al., GCN 43029.
