We present Chandra/ACIS observations of the bursting X-ray transient SAX J1747.0–2853 performed on 18 July 2001. We detected a bright source at the position of R.A = 17 47 02.60 and Dec. = –28 52 58.9 (J2000.0; with a 1σ error of ∼0.7 arcseconds), consistent with the BeppoSAX and ASCA positions of SAX J1747.0– 2853 and with the Ariel V position of the transient GX +0.2,–0.2, which was active du...
