Descripción
On 8-9 September 2006, a series of 7 XMM-Newton observations were
performed as part of our XMM-Newton/Chandra monitoring campaign of the
1.7 square degree region around Sgr A* (Wijnands et al. 2006, A&A,
449, 1117). Two X-ray transients were active during our observations.
A very-faint transient is active with an 2-10 keV X-ray luminosity of
approximately 2E34 erg/s (absorption corrected and for an assumed
distance of 8 kpc).
