Scientific paper

The MAXI/GSC has detected a faint X-ray transient source at a position:
(R.A., Dec) = (212.26, -61.95) = (14h09m02s.4, -61d57m00s.0) (J2000)
with a statistical error of about 0.2 degrees. The systematic error is smaller because the position is calibrated using nearby bright sources 4U 1323-60 and 4U 1254-69. The 4-10 keV flux reached a peak at 41 +/- 7 mCrab on October 17, then decreased to 29 +/- 7 mCrab on October 18.
