IGR J17375-3022: a new hard X-ray transient detected by INTEGRAL
Abstract
The IBIS/ISGRI instrument aboard INTEGRAL discovered a new X-ray source during the second part of the ToO observation on H 1743-322 conducted from 2008 October 10 at 21:35 U.T. to October 11, 22:00. The new source candidate, IGR J17375-3022, is located in the Galactic bulge at (RA,DEC)=(264.3946, -30.3817) (J2000), with a position accuracy of 2.2 arcmin. The source is clearly detected within 82 ksec in the 20-40 keV mosaic image with a significance of 12 sigma, and an average flux of 10 +/- 1 mCrab.
