Integral/IBIS Observations of persistent black hole spectral states during the Core Program

The Imager on Board the Integral Satellite (IBIS) is one of the two main telescopes of Integral, the ESA soft gamma-ray mission to be launched in 2002. The Integral Core Program will be divided into two main parts, the Galactic Centre Deep Exposure program and the Galactic Plane Scan for a total amount of around 6 .6 10^6 seconds each year. In this paper, we will study the visibility of persist ent galactic black holes as observed by IBIS during these two phases of the Core Program. We will also present what information may be derived from the IBIS observations of spectral/temporal properties (variation of the spectral index, presence/absence of a spectral break, ...) of these binary systems in different spectral states, in particular in the framework of the bulk motion Comptonization model.
