Remarks: We propose this ToO as simultaneous observation with AstroSat. As AstroSat will be observing 4U 1755-338 from 2025-03-31 (06:23:13.0): MJD=60765.0000 to 2025-04-02 (14:49:59.0): MJD=60767.0000.
ToO: Y
Coordinate Observation: Y
Observatory: ASTROSAT
Description: A joint NICER and AstroSat observation can strengthen the results, as both the detectors have excellent timing resolution and provide a broad-band spectral study, which can help to understand accretion dynamics and spectral changes, providing crucial insights into this black hole candidate's behavior.
Uninterrupted: N
