Abstract:

A series of observations performed with Swift/XRT (Target ID 33042) in the SMC detected a variable X-ray source within the field of view. The source appeared in observations performed on and after 2014 Jan 06, while it remained undetected in the period 2013 Dec 13 - 24. The XRT J2000 position is RA = 01:07:45.00, DEC = -72:27:40.9, (90% error radius of 4.0"). This position matches [MCS2008] 206, detected with Chandra on 2006 Feb 10.
