Swift J174510.8-262411 exhibits X-ray properties of a black hole transient in the hard state
Abstract
We carried out a spectral and timing analysis of Swift/XRT data from an observation of the new X-ray transient Swift J174510.8-262411 (ATELs 4380, 4381, 4383, 4385, and 4388). The Swift/XRT observation began on 2012 September 18 at 19.06 h UT, and an exposure of 797 s was obtained (ObsID 00533836003). XRT was operated in Window Timing mode, and count rate was 129 c/s (full band) and 106 c/s in the 0.6-10 keV band.
