Target Info

Target Name: J0618+2222
Target No.: 5089
Category: X-RAY PULSARS AND NEUTRON STARS
Coordinates[J2000]: (94.50603, 22.37465)
Exp (ks): 40
Extended: N

Extent Size:

Background Restriction: N

Remarks:

Constraint Details

Monitor: Y

Criteria: If we find an X-ray pulsar in the system we would like the initial observation to be followed-up by two shorter exposures(15-20ks), in order to understand spin evolution during the outburst. Assuming initial trigger during the rising phase, we would like one observation each during the peak and decline of the outburst. We would use optical and Swift observations to find appropriate trigger times.

Phase Dependent: N

ToO: Y
Coordinate Observation: Preferred

Observatory: NUSTAR
Description: We would like to understand its spectral behavior extending to hard X-rays in the current brighter state and find a spectral break if any. While the pulsation search would allow us to understand the nature of compact object the spectral behavior supplied should allow us to better understand the accretion regime.

Uninterrupted: N

Justification:

Estimated Count Rate (cts s-1): 0.512
