Scientific paper

We report on recent Swift/XRT observations of the hyper-luminous X-ray source, HLX-1, in the galaxy ESO 243-49 (Farrell et al. 2009). Swift/XRT has been performing regular monitoring observations of HLX-1 since late-2008 and it is suggestive that the source has an outburst cycle of 373 days (see Kong 2011, arXiv:1102.3212; Lasota et al. 2011). The last X-ray outburst occurred in 2010 late-August (ATel #2821).
