Subject

From
Alexander Blustin at MSSL-UCL <ajb@mssl.ucl.ac.uk>
S. R. Rosen (UCL-MSSL), S. Zane (UCL-MSSL), A. J. Blustin (UCL-MSSL),
K. Hurley (Berkeley), M. Chester (PSU), N. Gehrels (GSFC) on behalf
of the Swift/UVOT team

Further analysis of the Swift/UVOT data for GRB 060111A (Zane et al.,
GCN 4479) reveals that the afterglow candidate reported by Blustin et
al. (GCN 4482) in the initial UVOT V-band exposure has faded from view
in subsequent data. The 3 sigma magnitude upper limits from later summed
images in the different filters are as follows:

Filter   T_range(s)  Exp(s)  3sigUL(mag)

V        3750-4105   59      18.5
V        4757-10346  472     19.6

B        280-17141   1746    21.2
U        6042-16227  1476    20.8
W1       5838-21553  1033    20.3
M2       5633-10550  572     20.1
W2       9942-12104  435     20.1

These magnitudes are uncorrected for Galactic extinction.
