Scientific paper

A new outburst from the source XTEJ1739-302/IGRJ17391-3021 (Smith et al. 1998, ApJ 501, L101), the prototype of the class of the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients (SFXT; Smith et al. 2005 ApJ, 638, 974; Negueruela et al. 2006 ApJ, 638, 982), was observed by the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) on 2008-04-08 at 21:28:15 (trigger=308797). Swift immediately slewed to the target, so that the narrow-field instruments began observing the field 387 s after the BAT trigger.
