GCN Circular 6591

W. Landsman (GSFC/SSAI),  F.E. Marshall  (NASA/GSFC) and  S.T. Holland  
(CRESST/GSFC/USRA) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team.

The Swift/UVOT observed the field of GRB 070628 starting 1099 sec after 
the trigger (Holland et al., GCN Circ. 6584
Not found
 
 
).    We strongly detect the 
afterglow in the white and V filters, and have a weak detection in the B 
filter.    The refined afterglow position is

RA(J2000)  =  07h 41m 06.09s
Dec(J2000) = -20d 16' 45.4"

with an uncertainty of 0.7" (radius, 90% containment, including  
systematic uncertainty).  This is within the refined XRT error circle 
(Perri et al. GCN Circ. 6587
Not found
 
 
).
   
Magnitudes and upper limits are reported below.

The above magnitudes are not corrected for the large and uncertain 
extinction expected at the low Galactic latitude of GRB 070628.  

A power-law fit  to the white filter observations gives a decay index of 
~0.55 +/- 0.3.
