Abstract
MAXI J1816-195 is an AMXP that was discovered in outburst by MAXI (ATEL #15418). It has been observed several times by the Swift X-ray telescope. In a recent observation taken on June 23rd, with data in both Photon Counting (PC) and Windowed Timing mode, PSF fitting shows that there is a significant extended region around the bright point source.
