Scientific paper

A bright outburst, peaking at about 250 mCrab was recently detected from the globular cluster NGC 6440 (ATel #2360). This globular cluster is known to contain at least two transient X-ray sources (in 't Zand, 1998; Heinke et al., 2009), both of which are accreting millisecond X-ray pulsars (AMXPs; Gavriil et al., 2007; Altamirano et al., 2009), and several candidate quiescent X-ray binaries (Pooley et al., 2002).
