Jin (NAO,CAS) on behalf of the Einstein Probe (EP) team:\n\nThe EP-WXT trigger 01709200800 at the time of 2025-08-27T11:22:22, is likely a stellar flare associated with LSPM J0220+3320. The estimated flux of the flare is around 4.87e-11 erg/s/cm^2 in 0.5-4.0 keV, corresponding to an X-ray luminosity of around 1.61e31 erg/s.\n\nLaunched on January 9, 2024, EP is a space X-ray observatory to monitor the soft X-ray sky with X-ray follow-up capability (Yuan et al. 2022, Handbook of X-ray and Gamma-ray Astrophysics).",
