Abstract

In Feb-March 2004, scans of the galactic bulge region by RXTE PCA detected a new excess. At the time, position scans were done, with the resulting best fit position of RA, Dec = 264.4606, -37.6605 (J2000), with a position error radius of 4 arcmin (95% confidence). The outburst in 2004 lasted from approximately 2004-02-14 through 2004-03-23, with peak fluxes of 6 mCrab (2-10 keV). At the time, we designated the source XTE J1737-376.
