TITLE: GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT
NUMBER: 4233
SUBJECT: GRB051109B: no UVOT source detected
DATE: 05/11/09 18:44:19 GMT
FROM: Massimiliano de Pasquale at MSSL-UCL <mdp at mssl.ucl.ac.uk>
M. De Pasquale (UCL-MSSL), G. Tagliaferri (INAF-Brera), A.J. Blustin
(UCL-MSSL), D. Hinshaw (GSFC-SPSYS), M. Carter (UCL-MSSL),
N. Gehrels (GSFC) on the behalf the UVOT/Swift Team:
The Swift UVOT began observing the field of GRB051109B at 08:41:03 UT,
84 seconds after the BAT Trigger (Tagliaferri et al, GCN 4222). No new
source with respect to USNO B1.0 is detected within the 4 arcsecond
radius XRT error circle (Campana et al., GCN 4226), either in the first
exposure or in the coadded V-band exposures down to the following 3
sigma magnitude upper limits:
Filter T_range (sec) Exp (sec) 3sigUL
V 84-284 200 18.9
V 84-8280 4956 20.8
The source previously reported in GCN 4222 was actually an artefact
of the onboard processing and was not a real source.
These values are not corrected for Galactic extinction.
