Scientific paper

On behalf of the RXTE ASM Team at M.I.T. and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, we report the detection of a new X-ray outburst in the black hole binary, 4U 1543-47 (archival optical position: R.A. = 15h47m08.6s, Decl. = -47 40' 09", equinox J2000.0; +/- 1 "). The first detections with the RXTE ASM indicated a flux (2-12 keV) of 0.054 (+/- 0.009) Crab on June 16.683, rapidly increasing to 0.5 Crab (June 17.122) and 1.65 Crab (June 17.552).
