Scientific paper

We propose to carry out four late-time ACIS-S imaging observations of a well-localized X-ray flash (XRF). The goal is to measure the shape of the X-ray afterglow light curve prior to and after the time at which the supernova bump appears (t~ 1 week), and to differentiate the flux modulation effects due to jets from those due to an underlying supernova. Two 20 ksec observations will take place within the 4-12 day response window. Assuming detections are made in these observations, two additional 30 ksec observations will take place within a 12-30 day response window.
