iPTF GW follow-up teams:

Swift has performed follow-up observations of the source iPTF17cw 
(Kasliwal et al., LVC Circ. 20398; Kupfer et al., LVC Circ. 20419). 
Swift-XRT collected 1.3 ks of data from 790.6 ks to 802.8 ks after the 
GW trigger.

No X-ray events were detected at the location of iPTF17cw. The 3-sigma 
upper limit at this location was 5.3e-3 ct/sec (0.3-10 keV). Assuming a 
typical AGN spectrum (NH=3e20 cm^-2, Gamma=1.7) this corresponds to a 
flux of 2.19e-13 erg cm^-2 s^-1.
