Abstract
L. J. Kaluzienski, S. S. Holt, E. A. Boldt and P. J. Serlemitsos, Goddard Space Flight Center, report the detection of an x-ray flare in Norma with the Ariel 5 all-sky monitor. The best position is R.A. = 16h09m, Decl. = -52o.6 with an error circle of approximately 2o radius. The sources 3U 1702-36, 1636-53 and 1642-45 were simultaneously measured to within 1o of their known positions. The new source was half as bright as the Crab between Nov. 1 and Nov. 4.
