Abstract In the period that the Galactic center region was in the field of view of HETE-2 satellite from May to September 2001, it detected bursts from well-known X-ray bursters (XRBs). More than 130 events were localized with the Wide-Field X-ray Monitor (WXM) on HETE-2 in these four months to the XRBs including X 1728-34, SAX J1750-29, Aq1 X-1, NGC 6624, and GS 1826-238. Localization accuracy is better than 18 arc-minutes for most of the events. In this paper, we summarize the XRBs detected by HETE-2 and show the light curves of the several events.
