Scientific paper

The observations of the GX1+4 field on Aug. 16 1989 are reported. During these observations, the cooled mask imaging spectrometer instrument of the Mir-Kvant observatory discovered a new transient X ray burster. The persistent flux in the 2 to 27 keV band from this source varied from 50 to 100 millicrabs. Several bursts with durations of 10 to 20 s and peak flux up to 0.6 Crab were detected in the period from 16 to 31 Aug.
