Abstract: Recently Gordon and McIntosh introduced the third order mock theta function $xi(q)$ defined by ${\displaystyle }$ xi(q)=1+2sum_{n=1}^{infty}frac{q^{6n^2-6n+1}}{(q;q^6)_{n}(q^5;q^6)_{n}}. ${\displaystyle }$ Our goal in this paper is to study arithmetic properties of the coefficients of this function. We present a number of such properties, including several infinite families of Ramanujan--like congruences.
