Descripción
We report on Chandra ACIS-S observations of five type I X-ray bursters
with low persistent emission: SAX J1324.5-6313, SAX J1752.3-3128, SAX
J1752.3-3128I, SAX J1324.5-6313V, and SAX J1818.7+1424. We designate
candidate persistent sources for four X-ray bursters. All candidates are
detected at a persistent luminosity level of 1032-33 erg
s-1, comparable to soft X-ray transients in quiescence. From
the number of bursters with low persistent emission detected so far with
the Wide Field Cameras, we estimate a total of such sources in our
Galaxy between 30 and 4000.
