Abstract We propose to monitor the evolution of the cyclotron lines in the Be transient 4U0115+63 throughout its next major outburst, which is expected to happen in 2008. The aim of our observations is to study the luminosity dependent evolution of the cyclotron line, which is probably due to changes in the height of the accretion column caused by the varying mass accretion rate over the outburst.

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.
