Scientific paper

We propose a 40ks Chandra observation to detect the microquasar GRS 1915+105 in quiescence, should its current 15-year-long outburst end during the 9th Chandra observing cycle. This system has never been observed in quiescence: its properties suggest that its quiescent X-ray flux would be rather high, allowing a measurement of the spectrum and a test of models for quiescent emission in black-hole binaries. In addition, it will be possible to detect a fossil jet similar to that detected in the neutron star X-ray binary 4U 1755-33.
