ALEXIS has detected a potential transient in Telescope 3A (72
eV) at:
RA= (08 41 50.9)
DEC=(+09 50.1)
(Epoch 2000)
Error circle radius = 0.6 degrees (~90% confidence)
There was no evidence of the object in the co-aligned telescope 3B (186
Angstroms, 93eV). The source appeared to turn on about 20 UT 4 March and
was still bright or fading at 5 UT 6 March when the most recent contact
with the satellite was made. The light curve is quite flare-like.
Simbad show 24 objects within the error circle.
Follow up observations are encouraged
