On 2009-10-23 at 19:55 UT, RXTE discovered a new source while scanning the galactic bulge region, designated XTE J1752-223. Based on the existing PCA scan data, the best fit position is, R.A. = 268.05(16), Dec. = -22.31(4) (J2000). The 2-10 keV flux of the source at that time was about 30 mCrab. (1 mCrab = 2.4e-11 erg/cm/s^2, 2-10 keV)

  • Increasing of Photon Index

(going to the IS state)

  • Increasing of Ch. Freq. (i.e.

the radius of Inner disc is increasing)

  • Decreasing of RMS (probably

disc getting brighter)

  • Cold disc (from Swift obs.)

Discussion and Conclusion

  • Disk sets frequency?
  • One of the Lorentzian

linked to Power Law?

  • Second Lorentzian has

another origin.
