Integrating from 2016-11-08 10 30 00 UT to 2016-11-10 10 30 00 UT, a preliminary maximum likelihood analysis yields a detection with a significance of 6 sigma, and a flux F(E > 100 MeV)=(3.8 +/- 1.1) x 10^-6 ph cm^-2 s^-1.AGNBlack HoleBlazarQuasarTransienthttp://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2016ATel.9743....1M2016ATel.9743....1M
