Low State of the X-ray Burster SLX 1732-304 in the Globular Cluster Terzan 1 According to RXTE Data

Abstract

Observations of the X-ray burster SLX 1732-304 in the globular cluster Terzan 1 with the PCA/RXTE instrument in April 1997 are presented. The source was in a low state; its flux in the standard X-ray band was half the flux recorded by the ART-P/Granat telescope also during its low state. At the same time, its spectrum was softer than the ART-P spectrum; it was well described by a power law with a photon index of 2.3 without any evidence of a high-energy cutoff.
