Detection of new X-ray transient in M 31 (original) (raw)

Abstract

In an observation of the M 31 central region with the X-ray telescope (XRT) on board the Swift satellite (ObsId 0035336069, start time 2012-09-13.16 UT, exposure 2.64 ks), we detect about 60 counts from a new X-ray transient at position RA = 00h42m47.21 Dec = +41d14'05.5" (&plusmn 3.0", J2000, 90% confidence) after correcting systematic offsets (Kaaret 2002, ApJ, 578, 114), which we name SWIFT J004247.2+411405.
