Outburst peak of the black hole transient GS 1354-64
Abstract
Following the recent outburst activity of GS 1354-64 (BW Cir; ATel #7612, #7614, #7620, #7637, #7656), we report that this black hole transient has reached the peak of its outburst at optical (from our Faulkes/LCOGT monitoring; see ATel #7637), UV (Swift/UVOT), and X-ray wavelengths (MAXI, Swift/BAT), and the source is starting to decay in flux.
