Scientific paper

SLX~1735--269 is a (candidate) ultra-compact X-ray binary. It is a persistent source which shows rare dips that cannot be explain as periodic obscuration by material located in a thickened outer region of the accretion disk due to its interaction with the inflowing gas stream from the companion. We propose to observe this source for 10~ksec during one of its dips in order to understand if the accretion on the compact object ceases, or remains at very low levels undetectable with RXTE. The observations will also allow us to estimate the temperature of the neutron star crust.
