Abstract (from CDS):

A long flux enhancement, with an exponential decay time of 86min, is detected in 4U 1735-44 with the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras. We argue that this is a typeI 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.
