R. Oates (U.Warwick) and M. Stamatikos (OSU/NASA/GSFC) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 180706A 95 s after the BAT trigger (Stamatikos et al., GCN Circ. 22909). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position (Osborne et al. GCN Circ. 22916) 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 95 245 147 >19.3 u_FC 308 557 246 >17.7 white 95 5695 589 >19.0 v 1042 1582 58 >18.0 b 1140 5490 255 >19.1 u 308 1483 265 >17.7 w1 686 1625 91 >18.1 w2 5701 5880 176 >19.9 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.02 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998). =========== Draft Detection Circular ======== GRB 180706A: Swift/UVOT Detection S. R. Oates (U.Warwick) and M. Stamatikos (OSU/NASA/GSFC) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 180706A 95 s after the BAT trigger (Stamatikos et al., GCN Circ. 22909). A source consistent with the XRT position (Osborne et al. GCN Circ. 22916) is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. 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 587 607 20 18.28 +/- 0.17 v 1042 1582 58 >18.0 b 1140 5490 255 19.61 +/- 0.20 u 308 557 246 17.93 +/- 0.09 w1 686 1625 91 18.79 +/- 0.31 w2 5701 5880 176 >19.9 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.02 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
