A. Breeveld (MSSL/UCL) and J. Cannizzo (NASA/UMBC) report on behalf of
the Swift/UVOT team:
The Swift/UVOT began taking data on 2006-10-02, 129s after the burst
(Cannizzo et al., GCN 5676), discounting the 10s settling image. At the
position of the XRT error circle (Page et al., GCN 5681) there are no
new sources. In the summed UVOT images we obtain the following 3 sigma
upper limits:
Filter T_range(s) Exp(s) 3-sig UL (mag)
v 129-7107 1283 20.32
b 607-6697 412 20.63
u 582-12911 1095 20.87
w1 559-12244 1337 21.11
m2 534-11337 1354 21.41
w2 622-6902 432 21.19
These magnitudes are not corrected for the expected extinction of
E(B-V)=0.046
