TL;DR: The Ultra-Violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) as discussed by the authors is one of the three instruments flying aboard the Swift Gamma-ray Observatory, which is designed to capture the early (∼1 min) UV and optical photons from the afterglow of gamma-ray bursts in the 170-600 nm band as well as long term observations of these afterglows.
