L. Laha (GSFC/UMBC) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 231118A 105 s after the BAT trigger (Laha et al., GCN Circ. 35101). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circulars-35106 *** 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 105 255 147 >17.2 u_FC 318 568 246 >16.6 white 105 1539 389 >17.1 v 1052 1589 58 >16.2 b 573 1514 58 >17.0 u 318 1490 285 >16.6 w1 1618 1638 19 >16.6 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.013 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998). =========== Draft Detection Circular ======== GRB 231118A: Swift/UVOT Detection MSSL (***INSTITUTION***) and S. L. Laha (GSFC/UMBC) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 231118A 105 s after the BAT trigger (Laha et al., GCN Circ. 35101). A source consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circulars-35106 *** is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. The preliminary UVOT position is: RA (J2000) = 00:19:19.26 = 4.83024 (deg.) Dec (J2000) = -48:02:24.1 = -48.04004 (deg.) with an estimated uncertainty of 0.42 arc sec. (radius, 90% confidence). Preliminary detections using the UVOT photometric system (Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the early exposures are: Filter T_start(s) T_stop(s) Exp(s) Mag white 105 255 147 17.28 +/- 0.03 v 1052 1071 20 16.59 +/- 0.16 b 573 593 19 17.10 +/- 0.11 u 318 568 246 16.69 +/- 0.04 w1 1618 1638 19 17.18 +/- 0.24 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.013 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
