Ersin Gogus (Sabanci Univ.), reports on behalf of a larger team
The field covering the newly discovered Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 1833-0832
(Gelbord, J. et al. 2010, GCN #10526) was observed with Chandra ACIS-S
starting on 2009 February 13, 10:50:20 UT for 8 ks. There is no point
source detected within the best Swift XRT error circle (Evans et al. 2010,
GCN #10530). Employing spectral parameters reported by Gelbord et al.
(2010, GCN #10530), we obtain a 2-sigma upper limit to the unabsorbed
flux as 3.4E-13 erg/cm2/s.
