Scientific paper

The neutron-star LMXB SAX J1810.8-2609 has been frequently observed by INTEGRAL over the last weeks. After the onset of hard X-ray activity as seen by Swift on Aug. 6-9 (ATel#1175), and by INTEGRAL on Aug. 19 (ATel#1185), the source was covered by the Galactic Bulge Monitoring Programme (Kuulkers et al. 2007, A&A 466, 595) and in the INTEGRAL Key Programme of the Galactic Center. The light curve of the last 2 weeks shows a gradual brightening, which peaked on 2007-09-21T06:01 UTC with a source flux of about 83 mCrab and 60 mCrab in the 20-40 keV and 40-80 keV band, respectively.
