Scientific paper

We propose 2 HRC-S+LETG followup observations of V1494 Aql which we observed with CHANDRA as a TOO in Cycle 1. Our grating data show that it has become a Super Soft Source (SSS) and an analysis of the light curve shows a 2500s period. More grating data is necessary both to determine its evolution during the SSS phase and to measure any changes in period. We also observed a factor of 6 rise in counts during the observation and further data could help to determine if this were a common phenomenon. It is evolving slowly in the optical and should still be bright in X-rays in Cycle 3. Analysis of the grating data will allow us to study the composition of the ejecta, the lifetime of the TNR phase of the outburst, and the energy budget of the explosion.
