Scientific paper

On 8-9 September 2006, a series of 7 XMM-Newton observations were performed as part of our XMM-Newton/Chandra monitoring campaign of the 1.7 square degree region around Sgr A* (Wijnands et al. 2006, A&A, 449, 1117). Two X-ray transients were active during our observations. A very-faint transient is active with an 2-10 keV X-ray luminosity of approximately 2E34 erg/s (absorption corrected and for an assumed distance of 8 kpc).
