Swift/BAT observations of IGR J15791-2342
Abstract
Examination of archival data from the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Burst Alert Telescope (Swift/BAT) shows that the accreting millisecond pulsar IGR J15791-2342, discovered by INTEGRAL (Ducci et al., ATel #11941, Bozzo et al., ATel #11942, Ferrigno et al., ATel #11957), was detected in the BAT transient monitor in the 15-150 keV band between 2018-July-22 and 2018-Aug-19 (MJD 58320-58349), starting 20 days before the INTEGRAL discovery.
