Scientific paper

Ongoing SMARTS consortium observations of Aql X-1 with the 1.3m telescope at CTIO + ANDICAM instrument show evidence for a new outburst from this source. Data obtained starting 3/29/05 showed significant flux above the quiescent level - as of April 2.381 (UT) we find R=17.1 (quiescent brightness of ~18.8) and J=15.5 (quiescent brightness of ~16.4). We note that these measurements include light from the near neighbor star (Chevalier et al., 1999, A&A, 347,L51).
