Scientific paper

The RXTE All-Sky Monitor has discovered a fast X-ray transient that was initially thought to be a gamma ray burst, reported on the GCN network as GRB020406. The event began on 2002 April 6.76268, lasting more than 2 min and less than 3.15 hr, with a peak flux of 0.9 Crab (2-12 keV). (see http://xte.mit.edu/xtej1901+104). The ASM data show rapid evolution to a very hard spectrum during this outburst, but the IPN instruments failed to detect the source above 15 keV (K.
