INTEGRAL
03–04 Apr. 2016 464 57 481 37.31 ± 0.81 6.16 ± 0.36
19–21 Aug. 2016 468 57 621 38.16 ± 0.70 6.09 ± 0.18

Notes. Uncertainties are at the 68% level. The maximum flux in the respective 35-day cycle is given in units of ASM-cts/s, referring to the All Sky Monitor of RXTE. The flux was actually measured by Swift/BAT and converted according to (2–10 keV) ASM−cts s-1 = 93.0 × (15–50 keV) BAT−cts cm-2 s-1 (Staubert et al. 2016). 35-day cycle numbering is according to Staubert et al. (1983).
