GCN Circular 21351

F. E. Marshall (NASA/GSFC) and A. D'Ai (INAF-IASFPA)
report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team:

The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 170714A
384 s after the BAT trigger (D'Ai et al., GCN Circ. 21340
Not found
 
 
).
There is weak evidence for a fading source consistent with the
position of the z-band afterglow candidate reported by
de Ugarte Postigo et al. (GCN Circ. 21346
Not found
 
 
).
Preliminary detections and 3-sigma upper limits using the UVOT photometric system
(Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the initial exposures are:

The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction
due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.03 in the direction of the burst
(Schlegel et al. 1998).
