Constraint Details

Monitor: Y
Criteria: We request 8 epochs of 1 ks, performed bi-weekly (i.e. covering four weeks in total). The target comes out of Sun constraint on January 30. We will keep monitoring the source with MAXI (see http://maxi.riken.jp/star_data/J1631-478/J1631-478.html), to ensure it remains active at sufficiently high flux levels. In case the source drops to too low NICER count rates, we will notify the NICER team.
