Abstract INTEGRAL observations of SRGA J043520.9+552226In the spring of this year SRG/ART-XC detected a new hard X-ray transient SRGA J043520.9+552226 associated with a slowly varying optical transient AT2019wey. A week days ago SRG observed this source for the second time, in the course of its all-sky survey, and found it to be even brighter, at a flux of ~5e-10 ergs/cm2/s.During the April-September this source was extensively monitored by different X-ray (Swift/NICER/NuSTAR/Chandra) observatories along with optical and radio observations. There are different clues that indicate that the SRGA J043520.9+552226 is an accreting XB in our Galaxy.Three NuSTAR observations, made after our discovery, shown that the source spectrum is hard, with powerlaw slope of 1.8-2 and no obvious cut-off at high energies. Two of these observations happened in the late August, the 30-60 keV flux was about 40 mCrab.We are planning to utilize a break from all-sky survey on Oct 5, caused by a correction of the SRG orbit, in order to perform anobservation of this source. Currently we have scheduled this observation to happen on 2020-10-05 20:40:00 - 2020-10-06 00:00:00 UTC, but we will try to expand it. We are asking INTEGRAL to join this observation, pursuing two main tasks: first we would like to obtain a set of simultaneous observations with ART-XC, JEM-X and IBIS in order to perform cross-calibration, second we would like to use INTEGRAL data to measure the spectral shape at high energies (above 80 keV).

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.
