Scientific paper

We propose a 50 ks HETG observation of Cen X-3 out of eclipse in a low state. We will observe emission lines from the wind and from the accretion disk and inner accretion structure. From the fluxes of recombination lines we will measure the density and ionization structure of the wind. From the the line velocities we will measure the velocity and mass loss rate of the ionized wind. By measuring the line velocities of fluorescent lines from near the neutron star we will derive constraints on the location of inner accretion structures. This observation complements an already executed Chandra observation of Cen X-3 in eclipse.
