Abstract

X-ray;Black Hole;Transient
We report our most recent Swift observations of the black hole candidate MAXI J1836-194. After the observed renewed activity in March 2012 (ATels #3966, #3975), the source steadily decreased in luminosity with some minor fluctuations. Our latest two observations taken on July 5 and July 10 (~1.7 ks in total) yield a non-detection in both X-ray and optical bands, suggesting that the source has returned to quiescence.
