Observations of AMSP/bursters
Abstract
In the first year MAXI has given us the possibility to follow the outburst evolution of several Accreting Millisecond X-ray pulsars and X-ray bursters. These observations constitute an invaluable contribution when it is needed to put single event results in the context of long-term outburst evolution and spectral state changes. In this talk I will show examples in which MAXI monitoring observations have played a key role. I will also emphasize the importance of including more sources in the list of monitored AMXPs and X-ray bursters.
