Descripción
2S 1711-339: In ATEL #233 the absorbed X-ray flux of 2S 1711-339 was incorrectly given as 2e-15 ergs cm-2 s-1 (0.3-7.0 keV). The correct value obtained by using a blackbody model with kT = 0.24 +/- 0.03 keV or a neutron-star hydrogen-atmosphere model with kT = 0.07 +/- 0.03 keV is 1.0e-14 ergs cm-2 s-1 (0.5-10.0 keV). This flux is a factor of 10 below the limit on the quiescent absorbed flux obtained by Wilson et al.
