- Description:
- This HEASARC database table contains the INTEGRAL pointed observing programs for AO-1 through AO-20 and includes targets in both the Core Program (Guaranteed Time) pointed observations list and in the General Program (Open Time) accepted observations list. The structure of this database table was last revised by the HEASARC in August 2007. It was updated to include AO-20 in November 2022. The contents of the table are automatically updated on a weekly basis using the referenced data obtained from the ESA INTEGRAL mission website at <a href="http://integral.esac.esa.int/">http://integral.esac.esa.int/</a>. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Title:
- INTEGRAL Public Pointed Science Window Data
- Short Name:
- INTSCWPUB
- Date:
- 10 May 2024
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- Because of the pointing-slew-pointing dithering-nature of INTEGRAL operations, each observation of a celestial target is actually comprised of numerous individual S/C pointings and slews. In addition, there are periods within a given sequence where scheduled observations occur, i.e., engineering windows, yet the instruments still acquire data. The INTEGRAL Science Data Center (ISDC) generalizes all of these data acquisition periods into so-called `Science Windows.' A Science Window (ScW) is a continuous time interval during which all data acquired by the INTEGRAL instruments result from a specific S/C attitude orientation state. Pointing (fixed orientation), Slew (changing orientation), and Engineering (undefined orientation) windows are all special cases of a Science Window. The key is that the same attitude information may be associated with all acquired data of a given Science Window. Note that it is possible to divide a time interval that qualifies as a Science Window under this definition into several smaller Science Windows using arbitrary criteria. The INTEGRAL Public Pointed Science Window Data Catalog is a subset of the INTEGRAL Science Window Data Catalog. It only includes pointed science windows that have non-private proprietary status and at least one instrument's "good" exposure time greater than zero. This database table was first created at the HEASARC in October 2004. It is a slightly modified mirror of the online database maintained by the ISDC at the URL <a href="http://isdc.unige.ch/index.cgi?Data+browse">http://isdc.unige.ch/index.cgi?Data+browse</a> <p> The HEASARC version of this table is updated automatically within a day of the ISDC updating their database table.
