P. Beardmore (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 250129A 1184 s after the BAT trigger (Beardmore et al., GCN Circ. 39066). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circulars-39082 *** 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 1184 1334 147 >17.4 white 1184 1834 206 >17.4 v 1342 1885 58 >16.6 b 1443 5188 65 >17.1 u 1418 1784 39 >16.5 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.037 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998). =========== Draft Detection Circular ======== GRB 250129A: Swift/UVOT Detection ***UBS*** (***INSTITUTION***) and A. P. Beardmore (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 250129A 1184 s after the BAT trigger (Beardmore et al., GCN Circ. 39066). A source consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circulars-39082 *** is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. The preliminary UVOT position is: RA (J2000) = 13:14:42.41 = 198.67670 (deg.) Dec (J2000) = +05:01:50.3 = 5.03064 (deg.) with an estimated uncertainty of 0.43 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 1184 1334 147 17.45 +/- 0.04 v 1342 1362 19 16.73 +/- 0.18 b 1443 1463 20 17.45 +/- 0.15 u 1418 1437 20 16.93 +/- 0.16 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.037 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
