Swift/XRT and RXTE/PCA results from SWIFT J1756.9-2508
Abstract
We report on further analysis of the newly discovered millisecond pulsar SWIFT J1756.9-2508 (ATel #1105, #1107, #1108), including Swift XRT and RXTE PCA observations. Based on about 5 ks of Swift XRT data, the revised position for SWIFT J1756.9-2508 is: RA = 17h 56m 57.1s (269.23794) Dec = -25d 06m 26.7s (-25.10743) with an estimated error of 3.5" radius (90% confidence). We analyzed 1.1 ksec of XRT data from the first Swift observation of the source.
