Scientific paper

We report on our newest Swift observation of the black hole candidate MAXI J1659-152 (ATel #2873, GCN #11296). One additional 5 ks observation was carried out after our previous report on a sudden drop of the source intensity (ATel #3298). The observation was taken on 2011-05-06 07:16:10 UT in Photon Counting mode. The observation shows an unexpected increase of the source intensity. The spectrum can be adequately fitted with an absorbed power-law model.
