Special multiwavelength monitoring of 0201+14 TT Arietis

Active Dates: Aug. 1, 1991 – Aug. 2, 1991


Abstract:

The interesting cataclysmic variable 0201+14 TT Arietis will be the observing target of multiwavelength monitoring starting 8:00 UT August 1 and continuing for 24 hours. This will include observations with the x-ray satellite ROSAT, and possibly with the Japanese x-ray satellite Ginga and the ultraviolet satellite IUE. The aim is to monitor this star closely before and during the observation run to detect possible flares.

Justification:

To detect possible flares that have been recorded for TT Ari. Accurate timing is essential because in the flaring activities of this star, an optical and x-ray time lag of about 60 seconds has been detected in cross correlation.
