report on behalf of the MAXI team:

We examined the MAXI/GSC all-sky X-ray images (2-20 keV) obtained
in the orbit and the day after the LVC trigger
G277583 at 2017-03-13 22:40:09.593 UTC (GCN 20860

 ).

At the trigger time of G277583,
the high-voltage of MAXI/GSC was off,
and on from T0+682 sec.
GSC scanned more than 74%
of the whole sky in the 92-min orbit, which includes 78.3% of the
90% regions in the skyprobcc_cWB skymap.
One day image covers 97.5% of the 90% regions
in the skyprobcc_cWB skymap.
No significant new source was found in these images.
The upper limits for the X-ray flux are different depending
on the part of the sky.
For instance, typical 2-20 keV 1-sigma (3-sigma) upper limits obtained
from the one-orbit and one-day images are
13(39) mCrab and  3(9) mCrab, respectively,

If you require information of X-ray flux by MAXI/GSC at specific coordinates,
please contact the submitter of this circular by email.
