H. Siegel (PSU) and K. L. Page (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 250101A 133 s after the BAT trigger (Page et al., GCN Circ. 38752). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circulars-38761 *** 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 133 283 147 >17.9 u_FC 291 540 246 >17.7 white 133 943 258 >18.2 v 620 4609 235 >18.5 b 546 738 39 >18.1 u 291 5116 337 >18.0 w1 670 5019 235 >19.8 m2 4614 4814 197 >19.1 w2 596 4404 216 >18.9 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.164 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998). =========== Draft Detection Circular ======== GRB 250101A: Swift/UVOT Detection M. H. Siegel (PSU) and K. L. Page (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 250101A 133 s after the BAT trigger (Page et al., GCN Circ. 38752). A source consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circulars-38761 *** is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. The preliminary UVOT position is: RA (J2000) = 02:28:16.47 = 37.06864 (deg.) Dec (J2000) = +19:11:39.6 = 19.19433 (deg.) with an estimated uncertainty of 0.43 arc sec. (radius, 90% confidence). Preliminary detections and 3-sigma upper limits 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 133 283 147 18.03 +/- 0.05 v 620 813 39 18.10 +/- 0.28 b 546 738 39 18.66 +/- 0.21 u 291 540 246 17.93 +/- 0.08 w1 670 5019 235 >19.8 m2 4614 4814 197 >19.1 w2 596 4404 216 >18.9 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.164 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
