Scientific paper

The X-ray transient SAX J1750.8-2900 is detected during INTEGRAL Key Programme observations pointed at the Galactic Center starting 2008 March 12.93 UT and lasting 2.2 days. The source appears bright in the soft X-rays as seen by JEM-X1 since the start of the observation. The light curve shows variability and amplitude fluctuations, up to a maximum level of 600 mCrab in the 3-10 keV band. A preliminary analysis of the IBIS/ISGRI data shows positive detection for a source at a position 0.2' away from the one previously reported by SWIFT/XRT (ATEL #1431), thus proving identification with SAX J1750.8-2900.
