MAXI/GSC detection of renewed X-ray activity in the black hole X-ray binary GRS 1739-278 or a new soft X-ray transient MAXI J1741-276
Abstract
The MAXI/GSC detected a bright soft X-ray transient source at 04:48 UT on 2023 June 26. Assuming that the source flux was constant over five transits from 04:00 UT on June 27 to 11:45, we obtain the source position at (R.A., Dec) = (265.499 deg, -27.615 deg) = (17 41 59, -27 36 53) (J2000) with a statistical 90% C.L. elliptical error region with long and short radii of 0.22 deg and 0.18 deg, respectively.
