Swift/BAT sees MAXI J1535-571 declining in 15-50 keV
Abstract
BAT monitoring of MAXI J1535-571 shows that, in the 15-50 keV band, the source reached a peak around 2017 Sept 9 and has since begun to decline. At peak, the BAT count rate was 0.43 +/- 0.015 ct s-1 cm-2, or approximately twice the mean flux of the Crab.
