GCN Circular 33078

Paul Kuin (MSSL/UCL) and Simone Dichiara(PSU) report on behalf
of the Swift/UVOT team:

The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 221116A
113 s after the BAT trigger (Dichiara et al., GCN Circ. 33067
Not found
 
 
).
No optical afterglow consistent with the enhanced XRT position is
detected in the initial UVOT exposures.

Preliminary 3-sigma upper limits using the UVOT photometric system
(Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the first
finding chart (FC) exposure and subsequent exposures are:

The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction
due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.042 in the direction of the burst
(Schlegel et al. 1998).
