71. EXOSAT TGS Spectra and Lightcurves
ID:
ivo://nasa.heasarc/tgs2
Title:
EXOSAT TGS Spectra and Lightcurves
Short Name:
TGS2
Date:
07 Mar 2025
Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
Spectra obtained using the EXOSAT transmission grating spectrometer, TGS. There are two databases TGS and TGS2 as follows: <pre> * TGS - the grating spectra averaged over the positive and negative orders * TGS2 - the postive and negative orders kept separate </pre> TGS provides a better overview of the spectrum, and is quicker to use with a spectral fitting program. This is the default that most users will want to use. Once a user has become more expert and want to see, for example, if a subtle feature is present in both halves of the grating spectra, the user can access TGS2. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Title:
Far Ultraviolet Explorer (FUSE) Observation Log
Short Name:
FUSE
Date:
07 Mar 2025
Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
NASA's FUSE (Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer) spacecraft provided spectra in the far-ultraviolet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum (the wavelength range from 905 - 1180 Angstroms, or 90.5 - 118 nm), with a high spectral resolution of about 20000 (one wavelength point each 5 pm). FUSE was funded by NASA as part of its Origins program, and was developed in collaboration with the space agencies of Canada and France. It was operated for NASA by the Johns Hopkins University. FUSE was launched into orbit aboard a Delta II rocket on June 24, 1999 for a nominal mission of three years of operations. This table contains the FUSE Observation Log up to May 8, 2007, as archived at CDS in summer 2007. FUSE was formally decommissioned on October 18, 2007, following the failure of the last control wheel on the spacecraft in July 2007. More information about the FUSE Project can be found at NASA's Optical and Ultraviolet Archive (MAST) at <a href="http://archive.stsci.edu/">http://archive.stsci.edu/</a> and at the Johns Hopkins FUSE web site at <a href="http://fuse.pha.jhu.edu/">http://fuse.pha.jhu.edu/</a>. This database table was updated by the HEASARC in March 2009, superceding the previous versions of May 2007, May 2004, March 2005, and April 2006. It is primarily based on the CDS table <B/fuse>, specifically, the files fuse.dat, refs.dat and proposal.dat, but also contains additional information on proposal titles and bibliographic codes obtained from the MAST FUSE Archive. The HEASARC plans to update the bibliographic metadata for this table on a monthly basis as and when new information from the latter source becomes available.

73. Fermi GBM Daily Data

ivo://nasa.heasarc/fermigdays
Title:
Fermi GBM Daily Data
Short Name:
FERMIGDAYS
Date:
07 Mar 2025
Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
The Fermi GBM Daily Data database table contains entries for each day for which GBM data has been processed. The daily data products consist of GBM data that are produced continuously regardless of whether a burst occurred. Thus these products are the count rates from all detectors, the monitoring of the detector calibrations (e.g., the position of the 511 keV line), and the spacecraft position and orientation. Some days may also have event lists known as time-tagged event (TTE) files associated with them. These TTE files have the same format as those produced for bursts. Due to the large data volume associated with TTE files, only certain portions of the day considered of scientific interest to the instrument team will have TTE data. The underlying Level 0 data arrive continuously with each Ku band downlink. However, the GBM Instrument Operations Center (GIOC) will form FITS files of the resulting Level 1 data covering an entire calendar day (UTC); these daily files are then sent to the FSSC. Consequently, the data latency is about one day: the first bit from the beginning of a calendar day may arrive a few hours after the day began while the last bit will be processed and added to the data product file a few hours after the day ended. These data products may be sent to the FSSC file by file as they are produced, not necessarily in one package for a given day. Note that the data may include events from slightly before and slightly after the day official boundaries, which will be reflected in the start and stop times in the table. Consequently, some events may be listed in files for two consecutive days (e.g., at the end of one and the beginning of the next). Due to the continuous nature of GBM processing, new data files may arrive after the day has been included in Browse and reprocessed version may also arrive at any time. The reprocessed data will have the version number incremented (see file name conventions below). Browse will automatically download the latest versions of the data files. This database table was created by and is updated by the HEASARC based on information supplied by the Fermi Project. It is updated on a daily basis. The tte_flag parameter was added to the table in July 2010. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
74. Fermi LAT Weekly Data
ID:
ivo://nasa.heasarc/fermilweek
Title:
Fermi LAT Weekly Data
Short Name:
FERMILWEEK
Date:
07 Mar 2025
Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
The Fermi LAT Weekly Data database table provides access to LAT data binned into weekly files by the FSSC's data servers. For each week, the FSSC provides two FITS files: an all-sky file of photons containing positions, energies, etc. and a spacecraft pointing history file. The underscore separated fields in the file names indicate the file type (photon or spacecraft), the Fermi mission week (e.g., w009 = week 9), the processing version (which will change with each major reprocessing of LAT data), and a version number for the file itself. Note that currently the data may include events from slightly after the official week boundaries, which will be reflected in the start and stop times in the table. Any "run" of LAT data the FSSC receives that starts in a given week is put into the weekly file for that week and not broken up. Note additional selections must be applied to the weekly files prior to use in a data analysis. See <a href="http://fermi.gsfc.nasa.gov/ssc/data/analysis/documentation/Cicerone/Cicerone_Data_Exploration/Data_preparation.html">LAT Data Selection Recommendations</a> and <a href="http://fermi.gsfc.nasa.gov/ssc/data/analysis/LAT_caveats.html">Caveats About Analyzing LAT Data</a> for more information. For queries based on position, energy, and exact times, use the <a href="http://fermi.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/ssc/LAT/LATDataQuery.cgi">FSSC's LAT data server</a>. This database table is created by the HEASARC from FITS tables received from the Fermi Science Support Center (FSSC). It is updated on a weekly basis. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Title:
Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Observation Log
Short Name:
GALEXLOG
Date:

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
This table contains the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) observation log of the extant and planned observations to be made by this satellite observatory. The Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) is a NASA Small Explorer Mission launched on April 28, 2003. GALEX has been performing the first Space Ultraviolet sky survey. Five imaging surveys in each of two bands (FUV: 1350-1750 Angstroms and NUV: 1750-2800 Angstroms) range from an all-sky survey (limiting m<sub>AB</sub> ~ 20 - 21) to an ultra-deep survey of 4 square degrees (limiting m<sub>AB</sub> ~ 26). Three spectroscopic grism surveys (spectral resolution R = 100 - 300) are underway with various depths (m<sub>AB</sub> ~ 20 - 25) and sky coverage (100 to 2 square degrees) over the 1350 - 2800 Angstroms spectral range. The instrument includes a 50-cm modified Ritchey-Chretien telescope, a dichroic beam splitter and astigmatism corrector, two large, sealed-tube microchannel plate detectors to simultaneously cover the two bands and the 1.2-degree field of view. A rotating wheel provides either imaging or grism spectroscopy with transmitting optics. The GALEX mission also includes an Associate Investigator program for additional observations and supporting data analysis which supports a wide variety of investigations made possible by the first UV sky survey. The HEASARC provides this table of GALEX observations as an assistance to the high-energy astrophysics community, e.g., to enable cross-correlations of GALEX with X-ray observations. The GALEX data are available via MAST at <a href="http://galex.stsci.edu/">http://galex.stsci.edu/</a>. More information about GALEX can be found at <a href="http://www.galex.caltech.edu/">http://www.galex.caltech.edu/</a> and <a href="https://asd.gsfc.nasa.gov/archive/galex/">https://asd.gsfc.nasa.gov/archive/galex/</a>. This table was first created in July 2010 using the input file <a href="http://sherpa.caltech.edu/gips/ref/galex_obs_status.csv">http://sherpa.caltech.edu/gips/ref/galex_obs_status.csv</a> obtained from the Caltech GALEX site.

76. Gamma-Ray Bursts from the Interplanetary Network
ID:

Title:
Gamma-Ray Bursts from the Interplanetary Network
Short Name:
GRB/IPN
Date:
07 Mar 2025
Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
The Interplanetary Network (IPN) is a group of spacecraft equipped with gamma-ray burst detectors used to localize gamma-ray bursts (GRB) and soft gamma repeaters (SGRs, or magnetars). The astronomical locations of GRBs are determined by the comparison of the arrival times of the event at the locations of the detectors used on different space missions. The precision is proportional to the distance of spacecraft separations, so that the localizational accuracy of a network with baselines of thousands of light-seconds can be equal or superior to that of any other technique. The primary disadvantage of the IPN method, however, is the 1-day to 1.5-day delay in the acquisition of data from all the spacecraft in the network. Interplanetary GRB networks have been in existence since 1977, contributing to the studies of various astrophysical gamma-ray transients, most notably GRBs and SGRs (soft gamma repeaters). The IPN3 began operations in 1990, with the launch of the Ulysses spacecraft. It was joined by the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory in 1991. Pioneer Venus Orbiter, Mars Observer, and the Italian X-ray astronomy satellite BeppoSAX were part of the network while they were operating. Twenty-six experiments or missions have joined the network so far. Today, the main spacecrafts contributing their data are Konus-WIND, Mars Odyssey, INTEGRAL, RHESSI, Swift, Agile, BepiColombo, and Fermi. XMM-Newton and MAXI are kept to record the cosmic ray and SGR but not used for triangulation because of the different energy range. The IPNGRB database table is derived from a list provided by Kevin Hurley <khurley@ssl.berkeley.edu>, based on the IPN3. The initial list also includes particles and solar events as well as unconfirmed SGRs and GRBs. The IPNGRB database includes only the observations of confirmed cosmic gamma-ray bursts and SGR since the launch of the Ulysses spacecraft. It is updated every time a new list is provided to the HEASARC. This HEASARC catalog is derived from the master list of IPN3 events provided by Kevin Hurley. He also provided a FORTRAN program that generates the list of selected events. The output of this program is run at GSFC and ingested into the HEASARC database system. Information on the IPN3 system is available at <a href="http://ipn3.ssl.berkeley.edu/">http://ipn3.ssl.berkeley.edu/</a>. <p> Information on the IPN can be found at <a href="http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/heasarc/missions/ipn.html">http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/heasarc/missions/ipn.html</a>. <p> In December 2021 Kevin Hurley passed away. He was one of the initiator of the IPN and its evolution. The last table provided is dated August 2021. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Gamma-RaySourceDetailedCatalog(Macomb&Gehrels1999)
Short Name:
MGGAMMADET
Date:

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
This database table contains the slightly revised contents of the detailed Tables 2A - 2G from the General Gamma-Ray Source Catalog of Macomb & Gehrels (1999). It lists details of all known gamma-ray observations within the energy range from 50 keV to ~1 TeV for 314 discrete gamma-ray sources that were listed in Tables 2A - 2G of the published version of this catalog, including all 310 sources listed in the published Summary Table 1, together with 4 sources (2CG 054+01, A0620-00, GX 340+0, and H1822-000) that were listed only in Table 2 of the published catalog but were (presumably accidentally) omitted from Table 1. The positions for the sources in the present database were taken from Table 1 of the General Gamma-Ray Source Catalog. Thus, this table is essentially a compilation of gamma-ray observations of discrete sources as known to the authors as of early 1999. There is another HEASARC database table called the Gamma-Ray Source Summary Catalog (Macomb & Gehrels 1999) or MGGAMMACAT that contains the summary information on these sources that was given in Table 1 of the General Gamma-Ray Source Catalog. As noted above, this is a slightly revised version compared to the published Tables 2A - 2G. The known differences between the HEASARC and published versions are discussed in the HEASARC_Version section of the help documentation. This database table was created by the HEASARC in March 2002 based upon machine-readable versions of Tables 2A-2G of the Macomb & Gehrels (1999) General Gamma-Ray Source Catalog that were supplied by the authors. One duplicate entry was removed from this table in June 2019. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
The GINGABGD database table contains a summary of the contents of the Ginga pointed observations of (nominally empty) background fields. This table has been produced from the raw Ginga LAC First Reduction Files (FRFs), and contains information of the individual pointings in addition to FITS spectra and light curves, HDS and FITS data cubes and the plots produced during the pipeline processing. These products can be used with either the Ginga data analysis software or the <a href="/docs/xanadu/xanadu.html">XANADU software suite</a>. This archive (database and all the associated products) is a copy of the GINGABGD data products held at the Leicester Data Archive Service (<a href="http://ledas-www.star.le.ac.uk/">http://ledas-www.star.le.ac.uk/</a>). It was delivered to the HEASARC as part of archive exchange between data centers to facilitate the data transfer across the Atlantic. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
80. Ginga LAC Log
ID:

Title:
Ginga LAC Log
Short Name:
GINGA
Date:
07 Mar 2025
Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
The GINGALOG database table contains selected information from the Large Area Counter (LAC) aboard the third Japanese X-ray astronomy satellite Ginga. The Ginga experiment began on day 36, 5 February 1987 and ended in November 1991. Ginga consisted of the LAC, the all-sky monitor (ASM) and the gamma-ray burst detector (GBD). The satellite was in a circular orbit at 31 degree inclination with apogee 670 km and perigee 510 km, and with a period of 96 minutes. A Ginga observation consisted of varying numbers of major frames which had lengths of 4, 32, or 128 seconds, depending on the setting of the bitrate. Each GINGALOG database entry is the first record of a series of observations having the same values of "ACS MONITOR" (Attitude Control System). When this value changes, a new FITS file was written. The other Ginga catalog database, GINGAMODE is also a subset of the same LAC dump file used to create GINGALOG. GINGAMODE contains a listing whenever any of the following changes: "BITRATE", "LACMODE", "DISCRIMINATOR", or "ACS MONITOR". Thus, GINGAMODE monitors changes in several parameters and GINGALOG is a basic log of all the FITS files. Both databases point to the corresponding archived Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) files, but GINGAMODE may have more than one entry for a given FILE_LCURVE in the database. The user is invited to browse though the observations available from Ginga using GINGALOG or GINGAMODE, then extract the FITS files for more detailed analysis. The Ginga LAC Log Catalog was prepared from data sent to NASA/GSFC from the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS) in Japan. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
