Scientific paper

The Swift team and collaborators report on the detection of an outburst from a previously unknown Galactic transient consistent in position with the ROSAT source 1RXH J173523.7-354013. At 10:32:37 UT on May 14, 2008, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered (trigger=311603) and located an X-ray source (Krimm et al. GCN #7713; Baumgartner et al. GCN #7727). The time profile of the burst in the 15-150 keV energy range is consistent with a single peak, with very similar rise and decay times, emerging from background for about 100 s (10:31:59 - 10:33:39 UTC).
