Scientific paper

The Very Faint X-ray Transient (VFXT) XMMU J174716.1-281048, discovered in 2003 by XMM-Newton (ATel #147; Sidoli et al., 2006, A&A 456, 287), has been unveiled by INTEGRAL as type I X-ray burster (ATel #970; #972; Del Santo et al., 2007, A&A 468, L17) lying in the Galactic Centre region (ATel #1207). XMMU J174716.1-281048 is the first VFXT classified as ``quasi persistent", due to the fact that it appears to have been continuously active since its discovery (Del Santo et al., 2007; ATel #1078).
