MAXI/GSC found a new outburst of the black hole X-ray binary GS 1354-64 on 2025-12-25 (ATel #17563). Since then, multi-wavelength follow-up observations have been carried out (ATel #17582, #17583, #17586, #17611, #17612, #17618).
X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) observed GS 1354-64 as a DDT target of opportunity. The observation started at 2026-01-20T03:37:00 and completed at 2026-01-23T04:00:00 (TT). The quick-look data of Resolve obtained from a slice of the observation, 2026-01-20T07:29:22 to 2026-01-21T05:36:09, yielded the X-ray flux of 5.3 × 10-9 erg s-1cm-2 (2.0 – 13.0 keV). The preliminary source position is obtained to be (R.A., Dec.) = (209.542, -64.734) from the Xtend data in the same duration.
