Abstract

We report about the serendipitous discovery of a possible outburst from a radio-loud AGN with the Swift satellite. The radio source B3 1029+415, classified as galaxy by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), although with no redshift (see http://cas.sdss.org/astrodr6/en/tools/explore/ obj.asp?ra=158.136667&dec=41.280444), was serendipitously detected in the field of view of Swift/XRT during the observation of the nearby blazar 1Jy 1030+415 (6' away) performed on June 30, 2006 (obsID 00035397002, exposure 8.9 ks).
