Remarks: GTC optical observations have already been accepted and scheduled for November 8 from 21 to 23 UTC. Simultaneity is preferred, but not essential. Considering the NICER observing window of NGC 7793 P13, we ask to observe NGC 7793 P13 on November 6 or as soon as possible starting from this date (but no later than November 12).
ToO: Y
Coordinate Observation: Y
Observatory: GRAN TELESCOPIO CANARIAS - GTC
Description: (Quasi-)simultaneous observations will provide accurate and updated X-ray ephemeris which will boost our chance of detecting optical pulses and study the phase shift between the optical and X-ray pulsations. A maximum distance of 4 days (variation of the spin period ~-1e-5 s) can still allow us to extend the X-ray ephemeris to the epoch of the optical observation with a high enough accuracy.
Uninterrupted: N
Justification:
Estimated Count Rate (cts s-1): 3.000
