Scientific paper

The Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) light curve of the X-ray pulsar IGR J16320-4751 obtained between 2004 Dec 21 and 2005 Sep 17 shows a strong modulation at a period of 8.96 days. The mean BAT count rate of IGR J16320-4751 in the range 14 - 200 keV is 5.7E-4 counts/s which corresponds to approximately 13 mCrab. Most photons are detected below 50 keV. The Fourier amplitude of the modulation is 3.5(+/- 0.3)E-4 counts/s.
