Target Name: PKS 1127-145
Target No.: 5201
Category: ACTIVE GALAXIES AND QUASARS

Constraint Details

Monitor: Y
Criteria: If possible, the NICER observations should be split in observations of 1-2 ks each. A cadence of one visit every approximately 5-15 ks should be optimal in order to study the variability within each visit and, considering all visits, on a time-scale of a few days. A different splitting of the single visits is reasonable to be fit in the NICER schedule.
