Descripción
We report an outburst of a black hole X-ray binary, V4641 Sgr in 2004
July. We succeeded in performing time-series photometry during the
outburst, which showed repetitive short flares having a timescale of 10
min. Even after the outburst, it remained active for 17 d, as observed
after an outburst in 2002. In conjunction with a low X-ray flux, we
suggest that the 2004 outburst has the same nature as those in 2002 and
2003, though the total released energy during the outburst seems to be
less in 2004.
