ToO: Y
Coordinate Observation: Y
Observatory: NUSTAR
Description: Upon NuSTAR ToO activation, NICER should begin its 15 ks exposure simultaneously (within one ISS orbit) to guarantee full overlap of the impulsive rise and decay phases of the same flare. This synchronized start maximizes joint soft- and hard-X coverage for time-resolved spectroscopy.
Uninterrupted: N
Justification:
Estimated Count Rate (cts s-1): 5.900
