| Abstract | We report the detection of a type I X-ray burst in a 9ksec-long RXTE-PCA observation of the neutron star transient SAX J1747.0-2853. The burst bolometric flux was [1.7+/-0.1]x10{-8} erg/s/cm2 at the peak, on 2011-03-10 16:29:13 UTC, and the burst lasted for about 15 seconds. The blackbody temperature reached 2.4+/-0.1 keV at the peak and decayed to 1.0+/-0.2 keV within 8s. We inspected 0.5-s, 1-s and 2-s long Fourier transforms and found no significant oscillations during the burst in the 10-1000 Hz frequency range. |
