Target Info
Target Name: EXO 2030+375
Target No.: 5194
Category: X-RAY BINARIES
Coordinates[J2000]: (308.06364, 37.63746)
Exp (ks): 6
Extended: N
Extent Size:
Background Restriction: N
Remarks:
Constraint Details
Monitor: Y
Criteria: We expect the source to display changes in accretion behavior on a time scale of several days, therefore weekly monitoring would be advised. See also "specific Time Range"
Phase Dependent: N

Remarks:
Specific Time: Y
Start: 2021-12-14 00:00 UTC
End: 2022-01-23 00:00 UTC
Remarks: The source is currently in decline and has shown to change its spectral and pulse profile states over several days. It would therefore be ideal to start in the coming days and continue for several more weeks. By then its low flux might become an issue or at least warrants reevaluation. That would also cover a transition to a Type I outburst that might be tentatively hinted at by Swift/BAT.
