Descripción
After our report on the flux decay of the neutron star transient SAX J1750.8-2900 (ATel #1662) we have continued monitoring the source with Swift-XRT in order to study its transition to quiescence. In these observations (performed between August 14th. and October 8th.) we detect the source at different flux levels, with the corresponding luminosity (at 6.3 kpc; Kaaret et al 2002, ApJ) swinging in the range ~ 10^34 - 10^35 erg/s.
