H. Siegel (PSU) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 230816A 94 s after the BAT trigger (Siegel et al., GCN Circ. 34450). No optical afterglow consistent with the optical position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circ-34453 *** is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. Preliminary 3-sigma upper limits using the UVOT photometric system (Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the first finding chart (FC) exposure and subsequent exposures are: Filter T_start(s) T_stop(s) Exp(s) Mag white_FC 94 243 147 >20.9 u_FC 306 556 246 >20.0 white 94 1185 353 >21.3 v 636 1236 78 >18.7 b 562 1160 58 >19.9 u 306 1306 300 >20.1 w1 685 1285 58 >19.5 w2 611 1211 58 >19.6 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.312 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
