TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 19631 SUBJECT: GRB 160630A: Swift/UVOT Upper Limits DATE: 16/06/30 15:22:22 GMT FROM: Mike Siegel at PSU/Swift MOC S. J. LaPorte (PSU) and H. A. Krimm (CRESST/GSFC/USRA) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 160630A 87 s after the BAT trigger (Krimm et al., GCN Circ. 19624). No optical afterglow consistent with the enhanced XRT position (Goad et al., GCN Circ 19626) or the optical/IR position (Kann et al. GCN Circ. 19625) 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 87 237 147 >20.6 u_FC 300 550 246 >19.9 white 87 6366 530 >21.7 v 630 6777 439 >20.2 b 555 6161 236 >20.5 u 300 5956 462 >20.6 w1 680 7042 290 >19.7 m2 655 6982 432 >20.9 w2 606 6572 255 >19.7 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.48 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
