Abstract

The black hole X-ray binary (BH XRB) GX 339-4 entered an outburst in January 2021 (ATel #14351, #14367, #14352, #14354). For two months the source exhibited a slow brightening, observed at all reported wavelengths, remaining in a hard X-ray state (ATel #14384, #14400, Atel#14419, #14440, #14455, #14484).
