Scientific paper

The Swift/BAT triggered on a new outburst from the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient SAX J1818.6-1703 on 2009 September 5 at 11:15:15. Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 s, the mask-weighted light curve shows weak on-going emission at the start of the data at T-240 sec with a slow rise to a peak (of 0.06 ph/cm2/s in the 15-350 keV band) somewhere around T+200 s, and then slowly decreasing out past the end of the collected event-by-event data at T+963 s.
