Target Info

Target Name: ASASSN-20HX
Target No.: 6356
Category: BLACK HOLES
Coordinates[J2000]: (255.90205, 62.02565)
Exp (ks): 60
Extended: N

Constraint Details

Monitor: Y

Criteria: We request 30 epochs of NICER observations with a cadence of 2-3 days starting as soon as possible. TDEs evolve the most over the first ~100 days, so the proposed observations will allow us to track the evolution of the X-ray emission as the source reaches peak and then begins to fade, complementing our Swift UV and ground based photometric and spectroscopic monitoring program.
