Scientific paper

The Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) and X-Ray Telescope (XRT) on board the Swift satellite mapped M 31 during a series of pre-planned observation with XRT integration times of up to 5 ks from 2008 May 25 to July 26 (PI Immler). We searched in these observations for X-ray transients. SWIFT J004420.1+413702 is detected as a new transient at RA(J2000) 00:44:20.12, Dec(J2000) +41:37:02.1 (1 sigma position error 4.5") in ObsID 37721001 starting on 2008 May 28.11 UT.
