Abstract

Routine scanning of the Swift-BAT data on 2007-08-03 found a previously undetected source at a level of ~50 mCrab, with an earliest detection at 10-20 mCrab on 2007-07-14. A ToO with Swift on 2007-08-03 shows a strong source at XRT position (J2000): RA = 5h 41m 33.90s Dec = -68d 25' 50.2" (unc. 3.5") UVOT Position (J2000): RA = 5h 41m 34.32s Dec = -68d 25' 48.3" (unc. 1.0") These positions are consistent with each other and with the location of the probable HMXB source XMMU J054134.7-682550 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (Liu et al 2005, A&A, 442, 1135L).
