Results from Swift-XRT observations of SAX J1750.8-2900

The lightcurve of the neutron star X-ray transient SAX J1750.8-2900 is displayed below. The points above L~1e35 erg/s represent RXTE-PCA bulge scan observations (Markwardt & Swank), while the series of detections below L~1e35 erg/s were obtained thanks to Swift-XRT observations. During more than one month the source maintained a luminosity of 1e34 - 1e35 erg/s (see Atel 1662 and Atel 1777 for our reports of the first and latest Swift-XRT observations). The arrow marks the time of the X-ray burst reported in Atel 1775.
