Scientific paper

We follow up on a report by AGILE of increased gamma-ray flux from the Crab nebula (Tavani et al. 2010, ATEL #2855). The BAT team routinely monitors the Hard X-ray intensity of the Crab nebula. In the time period in question (2010-09-19 to 2010-09-21) the BAT does not detect variations of more than 5.5% (15-50 keV; 1-sigma) from the mean level. We also note that there are no apparent intensity variations detected by the RXTE All-Sky Monitor (2-12 keV) in the same time range.
