الوصف: We report early photospheric-phase observations of the Type IIP Supernova (SN) 2005cs obtained by Swift’s Ultraviolet-Optical and X-Ray Telescopes. Observations started within two days of discovery and continued on a regular basis for three weeks. During this time the V-band magnitude remained essentially constant, while the UV was initially bright but steadily faded until below the brightness of an underlying UV-bright Hii region. This UV decay is similar to SNe II observed by the International Ultraviolet Explorer. UV grism spectra show the P-Cygni absorption of Mgii 2798˚A, indicating a photospheric origin of the UV flux. Based on non-LTE model atmosphere calculations with the CMFGEN code, we associate the rapid evolution of the UV flux with the cooling of the ejecta, the peak of the spectral energy distribution (SED) shifting from ∼700˚A on June 30th to ∼1200˚A on July 5th. Furthermore, the corresponding recombination of the ejecta, e.g., the transition from Feiii to Feii, induces a considerable strengthening of metal line-blanketing at and above the photosphere, blocking more and more effectively this fading UV flux. SN 2005cs was not detected in the X-rays, and the upper limit to the X-ray luminosity yields a limit to the mass loss rate of the progenitor of ˙ M <
