Abstract

We acquired a 5 ks HRC-I Chandra Director's Discretionary Time observation of the neutron star X-ray transient XTE J1701-407 (ATEL #1569, #1572, #1616, #1618, #1621, and #1635) on 2008 August 26, following a Target of Opportunity ACIS-S observation on 2008 August 07 that was severely compromised by photon pileup. In the HRC-I observation the source is well-detected, with a count-rate of 1.32 count/s (background-subtracted) within a 20- pixel (2.6 arcsec) radius.
