Descripción
A long flux enhancement, with an exponential decay time of 86 min, is
detected in 4U 1735-44 with the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras. We argue
that this is a type I X-ray burst, making it the longest such burst ever
observed. Current theories for thermonuclear bursts predict shorter and
more frequent bursts for the observed persistent accretion rate.
