INTEGRAL U.S. Guest Observer Facility
High energy observations of the newly discovered burster millisecond pulsar IGR J17511-3057
The transient source IGR J17511-3057 was discovered during INTEGRAL observations of the Galactic Bulge monitoring program (see ATel #2196). Subsequent observations of the Galactic Bulge and Center region allow to follow the transient's outburst in hard X-rays. A deeper insight into the source properties will be obtained during the TOO observations of the system in revolution 846 (16-19 Sep., 2009). INTEGRAL is not the only satellite observing the outburst of IGR J17511-3057. The transient is being observed by many of the X-ray/gamma-ray observatories currently in operation. The overview below is based on available short-term scheduling, and may not be necessarily complete. For details of the INTEGRAL observations see the INTEGRAL Scheduling pages.
