TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 45094 SUBJECT: The EP-WXT trigger 01709274141 is likely a flaring star DATE: 26/07/07 02:07:57 GMT FROM: EP Team at NAOC/CAS <ep_ta@bao.ac.cn> K.R. Ni (CCNU), Y. F. Liang,H. Zhou (PMO),C.-K. Kan (HKU), H. Sun (NAO, CAS). on behalf of the Einstein Probe (EP) team: The EP-WXT trigger 01709274141 at the time of 2026-07-06 20:01:19, is likely a stellar flare associated with CD-25 16313. The estimated flux of the flare is around 2.1 x 10^-11 erg/s/cm^2 in 0.5-4.0 keV, corresponding to an X-ray luminosity of around 8.6 x 10^31 erg/s. Launched 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).
