In this White Paper we present the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and
Polarimetry (eXTP) mission for studies related to Observatory Science targets.
These include flaring stars, supernova remnants, accreting white dwarfs, low
and high mass X-ray binaries, radio quiet and radio loud active galactic
nuclei, tidal disruption events, and gamma-ray bursts. eXTP will be excellently
suited to study one common aspect of these objects: their often transient
nature. Developed by an international Consortium led by the Institute of High
Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Science, the eXTP mission is expected
to be launched in the mid 2020s.
