GROND and Swift observations of XMMU J115113.3-623730
Abstract
We observed XMMU J115113.3-623730, a bright, soft X-ray source discovered during a slew maneuvre of XMM, with the 7-channel imager GROND (Greiner et al. 2008, PASP 120, 405). Observations started on 2010 Jul 19, 00:04 UT at airmass of 1.45, and under 1.5 arcsec seeing. We find a single optical/NIR source in the Swift X-ray error circle, at position RA(2000.0) = 11:51:13.00, Decl.(2000.0) = -62:37:28.8 (+-0.3" in both coordinates).
