TITLE:   GCN CIRCULAR
NUMBER:  7611
SUBJECT: GRB080413B

S. R. Oates and M. Stamatikos report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team.

The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 080413B 135s
after the BAT trigger (Stamatikos et al., GCN 7598). We detect the 
afterglow
in the 7 UVOT filters at the position:

RA(J2000.0)  =  21:44:34.65
DEC(J2000.0) = -19:58:52.40

with an estimated uncertainty of 0.5 arcsec (radius, 90% confidence). 
This position is
consistent with the refined XRT position and the GROND optical position 
(Kruehler et al., GCN 7599).

The magnitudes are reported below:

The above magnitudes are not corrected for the Galactic extinction 
corresponding to a
reddening of E_{B-V} = 0.04 mag (Schlegel et al., 1998, ApJS, 500, 525). 
The photometry
is on the UVOT flight system described in Poole et al. 
(2008,MNRAS,383,627).
