Target No.:
Category: X-RAY BINARIES

Constraint Details

Monitor: Y
Criteria: As we mentioned, we would like to characterise the rise of the outburst both in optical and X-rays. In order to do that, we request 1 ks daily observation for fourteen consecutive days. We consider this relatively long exposure time enough to measure a faint source in X-rays at the beginning of the outburst phase.

Specific Time: Y
Start: 2023-10-12 12:42 UTC
End: 2023-10-26 00:00 UTC
Remarks: Given the speed at which the optical fluxes are increasing, we expect the outburst to peak during the next weeks. Because of that, we need to observe the system on a daily basis in the next fourteen days.
