Scientific paper

On MJD 52710.2, the RXTE ASM found activity in the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1608-52 at a level of 250 +/- 20 mCrab. Summing ASM dwells into one-day averages, 4U 1608-52 was first detected on MJD 52707.4 at a flux of 30 +/- 20 mCrab, rising to 100 +/- 20 mCrab on MJD 52708.5. Dwells today (MJD 52710) have measured fluxes as high as 290 +/- 20 mCrab. Observations at all wavelengths are encouraged.
