Abstract We propose to observe up to 3 black hole transients in outburstwith INTEGRAL, as part of a global, simultaneousmulti-wavelength campaign. Each black hole should be observed on 4occasions for 100 ksec. These observations will pursue twofundamental lines of inquiry: (1) understanding the relationshipbetween four known X-ray states, and the two known gamma-ray states(are there more than two gamma-ray states?); and (2) understandingwhat structures in the accretion inflow/outflow geometry contribute tohard-X-ray/soft-gamma-ray emission in these states (e.g., a corona,a jet, or both).

Mission Description The INTEGRAL (International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory) mission, launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) on October 17, 2002, was designed to study high-energy phenomena in the universe. INTEGRAL was operating until february 2025 and it was equipped with three high-energy instruments: the Imager on Board the INTEGRAL Satellite (IBIS), the Spectrometer on INTEGRAL (SPI), and the JEM-X (Joint European Monitor for X-rays). Its Optical Monitoring Camera (OMC) provided optical V-band magnitude measurements, complementing the high-energy observations.
