report on behalf of the MAXI team:

We examined the MAXI/GSC all-sky X-ray images (2-20 keV) obtained
in the orbit and the day after the LVC trigger
G270580 at 2017-01-20 12:30:59.350 UTC (GCN 20486

).

In the 92-min orbit, MAXI/GSC scanned 66.7%
of the whole sky, which includes 78.5% of the
90% regions in the LIB skymap.
One day image covers 96.6% of the 90% regions
in the LIB skymap.
No significant new source was found in these images.

The upper limits for the X-ray flux are different depending
on the part of the sky.
For instance, typical 2-20 keV 1-sigma (3-sigma) upper limits obtained
from the one-orbit and oneday images are
13 (40) mCrab and 5 (16) mCrab, respectively.
