| Abstract | During an AGILE pointing at the Galactic Center region, a type-I X- ray burst was detected by SuperAGILE (ATEL #1445) from a position that is consistent with that of IGR J17473-2721 (ATEL #498 & #500, also known as XTE J1747-274, ATEL #467) suggesting that this source exhibit renewed activity. To conclusively identify the burst source with the XTE/IGR transient, we obtained a Swift/XRT observation of ~ 4.1 ksec on Monday 31st of March, 2008. |
