Scientific paper

Dedicated RXTE/PCA scans of the region around GRO J1655-40 (ATEL #414) were performed on Feb 20 around 09h UT. The scans show only one source in the region, whose position is consistent with GRO J1655-40 to within 4 arcmin (2.5 sigma). The 2-10 keV flux has risen to approximately 8 mCrab (compare to 4 mCrab on Feb 18, ATEL #414). No pulsations were detected, ruling out the presence of a transient pulsar.
