Scientific paper

We propose to observe GS 1826-238 with Chandra to obtain high resolution spectra of an additional 20-25 bursts and the intervening persistent emission to produce a total data set >4 times larger than that accumulated with our Cycle 3 observation. From this data set we can investigate in more detail the results from the first observation, such as the burning and subsequent cooling geometry after Type I bursts, and deeper searches for absorption lines in both the burst and persistent emissions. This has the potential of measuring neutron star gravity as well as defining the boundary emission and scattering processes. As a bonus, we will also continue the monitoring of the recurrence times of the bursts.
