Constraint Details

Monitor: Y
Criteria: If possible, the NICER observations should be split in observations of about 1 ks each. A cadence of three/four visits per day 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.

Coordinate Observation: PREFERRED
Observatory: NUSTAR
Description: Three NuSTAR observations will be performed between MJD 59434.23888889 and MJD 59440.61458333. NICER observations would be important to complement hard X-ray data collected by NuSTAR with soft X-ray data collected by NICER. A coordination if possible is preferred.
Uninterrupted: N
Justification:
Estimated Count Rate (cts s-1): 6.700
