Scientific paper

Swift X-ray telescope observations following the recent explosion of the recurrent nova RS Oph over 2006 Mar 17.65 - Mar 19.02 UT have shown a much increased count rate compared to the days before, and have revealed two new forms of modulation. The Swift XRT 0.3-10 keV light curve can be characterised as a high level of 100-150 c/s which appears to be cut by two deep dips (centred on Mar 18.25 & 18.79 UT) during which the count rate fell below ~20 c/s.
