P.Schady (MSSL-UCL) and N. Lyons (Leicster) report on behalf of the
UVOT team
Swift/UVOT began observing the field of the INTEGRAL burst GRB070615
10.7hrs after the IBAS trigger in the V and white filters. No afterglow
is detected in any of the individual or co-added observations down to
the following 5-sigma upper limits:
Filter T_mid (s) Exp (s) UL Mag (5sig)
====================================
V 46354 2887 19.59
White 51435 36 18.07
====================================
where T_mid corresponds to weighted mid time of the observation. The
values quoted above are not corrected for the expected Galactic
reddening of E(B-V) = 0.12 mag (Schlegel et al. 1998).
