MeerKAT and Swift/XRT detection of MAXI J1348-630
Abstract
A re-brightening of the black hole candidate MAXI J1348-630 has been reported at optical wavelengths by the LCO from observations starting on January 24 2020 (ATel #13451), and the source was subsequently detected in X-rays by MAXI/GSC (ATel #13459) and NICER (ATel #13465), suggesting the occurrence of a new outburst, now entering a decay phase.
