HEAO-1 A2 all-sky scanning data

On the cover

The cover image is a galactic center centered Aitoff projection of the HEAO-1 A2 all-sky scanning data. It spans a six-month period starting on day 322 of 1977 (18 Nov), covers the spectral range of 1.5 - 60 keV as seen by the MED (Medium Energy Detector) and HED3 (3rd High Energy Detector) in the small field of view collimator configuration (3.0 deg x 1.5 deg field of view). Missing data in the original data has been reconstructed using a beam-weighted average.
