Scientific paper

We present the first installment of the Swift Ultra-Violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) gamma-ray burst catalog. The catalog includes all GRBs observed by the UVOT during the first 24 months of its operation, from January 24, 2005 to January 23, 2007. The catalog contains detailed UV and optical photometric information for each burst, as well as derived parameters, allowing the study of individual bursts, as well as statistical analyses of the GRB phenomenon. We show example light curves, color space diagrams, distributions of temporal decay slopes and peak magnitudes, and compare UVOT fluxes to those in the Swift Burst Alert Telescope and X-Ray Telescope.
