The disk temperature (Tin) obtained with the diskbb model in ATel #17559 should be 0.91 (+0.18, -0.14 keV at 90% confidence interval) keV, not 0.7 keV. The 2-10 keV flux should also be1.1e-9 erg/cm2/s. If we fit the spectrum with a phabs*simpl*diskbb model with a gamma of 2.2 to compare with the results by Stiele et al. (2012) more directly, we obtain Tin = 0.80 (+0..25, -0.21) keV.

Dr. G. Jaisawal let me know that the source region will be soon observable with Swift/XRT, and the source is planned to observe early in the first week of January.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and appreciate Dr. Gaurava K. Jaisawal sharing the information.
