GCN Circular 30482

M. H. Siegel (PSU) and P. D'Avanzo (INAF-OAB)
report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team:

The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 210722A
94 s after the BAT trigger (D'Avanzo et al., GCN Circ. 30475
Not found
 
 
).
A source consistent with the XRT position is detected in the initial UVOT exposures.

The preliminary UVOT position is:
  RA  (J2000) =  01:48:07.28 =  27.03033 (deg.)
  Dec (J2000) = -06:20:49.7  =  -6.34713 (deg.)
with an estimated uncertainty of 0.42 arc sec. (radius, 90% confidence).

Preliminary detections using the UVOT photometric system
(Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the early exposures are:

The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction
due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.027 in the direction of the burst
(Schlegel et al. 1998).
