Scientific paper

An RXTE observation performed as part of our long-term programme to monitor the SMC (see Galache et al., 2008, ApJS, 177, 189 for details) on 2011-06-20 (MJD 55732.22) has revealed highly significant (>4 sigma) pulsations at 723 ± 2s. This period was detected along with its 2nd and 3rd harmonics at 361.4s and 240.5s respectively. The pointing position of RXTE for the 11ks observation (ObsID: 96037-04-25) was RA = 12.5 degrees, dec = -73.1 degrees (J2000.0).
