P. T. Boyd, and F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC) reports on behalf
of the Swift/UVOT team:
The Swift/UVOT began observing the field of GRB 060714 at
15:13:49 UTC on 2006-07-14, 109 s after the BAT trigger (Krimm et al.,
GCN Circular 5311). An optical counterpart was detected in the White
filter (160-650 nm) at a position (RA,Dec) = (227.8601, -6.5662)
(J2000) with a 90% confidence interval of 0.56 arcsec. The optical
afterglow was detected significantly in the White, and V filters.
The photometry results are given for the UVOT filters below:
Filter T-trig(s) Exposure(s) Mag Err
V 213 393 18.6 0.1
V 868 393 19.1 0.2
White 107 98 19.3 0.2
White 1275 98 19.7 0.2
B 691 39 19.7 3-sigma UL
U 667 227 20.5 3-sigma UL
UVW1 643 255 20.6 3-sigma UL
The values quoted above are not corrected for the expected Galactic
extinction of E(B-V)=0.079.
