Scientific paper

The black hole candidate XTE J1817-300 was observed for 20 ks with XMM-Newton on 13 March 2006, 45 days after the X-ray maximum as seen with RXTE/ ASM. The EPIC-pn camera was used in the Burst mode and a simultaneous high resolution spectra was obtained by RGS1. Spectral fits have been performed using XSPEC. The EPIC-pn spectrum is dominated in the 1-6 keV range by a thermal disk with kT=0.74 keV, and a power law with photon index 3.3±0.1 at higher energies.
