Scientific paper

We report the detection of four large optical bursts from the transient X-ray burster XTE J2123-058. This is the third case of detection of optical bursts in an X-ray transient during the active phase; the bursts are recorded with high time resolution and signal-to-noise. The total duration of the bursts is about 80 seconds and the amplitudes vary from 0.7 to 1 magnitude. Based on observations made at Laboratório Nacional de Astrofísica/CNPq, Brazil
