Scientific paper

The low-mass X-ray binary neutron star system 4U 1820-30 (also known as H 1820-303) has been in a soft X-ray low-hard state since late April 2009 as seen in the X-ray monitors on Swift and RXTE. The source has been steadily brightening in the Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) 15-50 keV band since about 24 April 2009 (MJD 54945) and its most recent daily average (7 June 2009) is 0.032 ± 0.002 cts/cm^2/s (145 mCrab).
