The Rapid Burster (MXB1730-335) has been observed with Swift during its last outburst (ATel. #1939, ATel #1946), with a total of 20ks exposure time distributed between MJD 54888.7 (Feb. 26) and MJD 14895.8 (March 5). All observations show intense Type II (accretion driven) bursting activity, with bursts intervals between 25 and 200 seconds. Most bursts peak at more than 100 cts/s in the first Swift/XRT (WT) sequences (Feb.
