Scientific paper

RXTE continues to perform pointed observations of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SWIFT J1749.4-2807 (ATEL #2548, #2565, #2567), known to be in a binary system with 8.82 hr orbital period (ATEL #2568, #2569). The RXTE PCA X-ray light curve shows a steady decline, at a rate of about 1 mCrab per day, with two clear dips in the X-ray light curve. When the X-ray light curve is folded on the X-ray orbital period (ATEL #2569), the dips occur near orbital longitude 90 degrees (as measured from the ascending node).
