Scientific paper

During regular scans of the galactic bulge and ridge regions on 2008-08-29, RXTE PCA discovered a new source. A dedicated follow-up scan on 2008-08-30 produced a best-fit position of RA, Dec = 249.35, -49.80 (J2000), with a 95% error radius of 6 arcmin. Note that because of galactic ridge emission, and significant source variability, the true uncertainties may have a non-statistical component.
