Scientific paper

Since its discovery on June 5, 2009 (GCN #9499, ATEL #2077), SGR 0418+5729 has been diligently observed with the RXTE PCA for the last 2 months. As noted by Kuiper & Hermsen (ATEL #2151), the pulse timing of this object is unusual for soft gamma repeaters. Specifically, we too find no evidence for measurable spin-down across this ~54 day time span. However, we do find evidence for the effects of a glitch near the onset of burst activity in early June.
