TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 9596 SUBJECT: GRB 090628: Swift/UVOT Upper Limits DATE: 09/06/29 22:59:56 GMT FROM: Mike Siegel at PSU/Swift MOC M. H. Siegel (PSU) and V. Mangano (INAF-IASFPA) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team. The Swift/UVOT began observing the field of GRB 090628 2790s after the BAT trigger (Mangano et al., GCN Circ. 9585). Data summed from the first orbit does not reveal a source at the refined position of the X-ray afterglow (Goad et al., GCN Circ. 9590). The 3-sigma upper limits for the finding chart (fc) and summed exposures are reported below: FILTER T_start(s) T_stop Exposure Mag/3UL ============================================================= white fc 2791 2941 147 > 20.26 white 3361 3560 196 > 20.72 v 3771 3971 196 > 19.23 b 3155 3355 196 > 20.16 b 4591 4672 79 > 19.64 u 2950 3149 196 > 19.63 u 4386 4586 196 > 19.82 uvw1 4181 4381 196 > 19.65 uvm2 3976 4176 196 > 19.33 uvw2 3566 3766 196 > 19.62 ================================================================= The above magnitudes are not corrected for the Galactic extinction corresponding to a reddening of E_{B-V} = 0.05 (Schlegel et al., 1998, ApJS, 500, 525). The photometry is on the UVOT photometric system described in Poole et al. (2008, MNRAS, 383, 627).
