Correction to the GCN 27886: Previous bursts of 1RXS J1708-4009 (Swift trigger 975998)
Abstract
We are notified that a previous flare from 1RXS J1708-4009, was actually detected by NuSTAR in 2018 (Younes et al. 2020, ApJ, 889, L27). We also note that a magnetar like burst has previously reported from this source by Archibald et al. (ATEL #10107). Therefore, previous statement of "no previous bursts reported in the literature by other instruments" in GCN 27886/ATEL 13780 is incorrect. We thank George Younes and Sergio Campana for sharing this info and we apologize for missing these articles in previous search.
