NICER observation list: Target ID 361201

We propose to observe the AMXP IGR J17062-6143 for a total exposure of 100 ks during the NICER cycle-2 GO program. With these observations we will be able to measure the very small pulse amplitude of this source, or place a physically interesting upper-limit on the presence of pulsations. This allows us to determine if the pulsations are continuing to decay, and if so what the exact rate of the decay is. The apparent slow decay of the pulse amplitude likely originates in the decay of the stellar magnetic field, such that measuring the rate of the decay will provide valuable guidance to the theoretical efforts trying to model the stellar magnetosphere and its long-term evolution.
