Abstract

The recurrent transient accreting X-ray pulsar X0535+262 has begun its first X-ray outburst observed with RXTE since a series of three closely spaced outbursts that ended in 2005. X0535+262 was first detected by the ASM in the current outburst on MJD 54721 (2008 September 12) at an average level of 21 (5) mCrab at 2-12 keV. The source intensity has averaged 33 (5) mCrab over the 6 days beginning with MJD 54722 and appears to be roughly stationary.
