ROSAT Status report #100:

August 1st 1994

Redistribution of MPE Report #30>

SATELLITE STATUS

No major problems were encountered during the last month.

The AO4 timeline runs through October 3, 1994. Afterwards, the first AO5 observations will be inserted into the ROSAT mission timeline. The first leg of the AO5 timeline will run through April 11, 1995. We anticipate providing the AO5 timeline by the end of August.

DATA RIGHTS of UNCOMPLETED PSPC OBSERVATIONS

In the last ROSAT NEWS, it was stated that the Guest Observer Program for the PSPC detector had officially ended in early July. The small amount of residual gas is left for a few Super TOO's (target of opportunity observations). Therefore, all high priority (A,B) PSPC observations that could not be completed to at least 70 percent now will be officially closed. The closing date for still incomplete observations will be set to August 1, 1994. Thus, these data will become public in August 1995 (at least 1 year after data have been distributed). Possible additional time for incomplete PSPC observations in connection with future Super TOO's are 'lucky extras', but do not influence the decision that data from now incomplete PSPC observations will become public as stated above.

ROSAT WORKSHOP III at MPE

As already announced, this year's ROSAT Workshop III will be held at MPE on October 26 and 27 (Wednesday & Thursday). The opportunity to present and discuss recent ROSAT results, to speak on data evaluation and interpretation issues with a large expert community is a unique chance. We therefore hope for a similar interest as experienced in the past two years.

To facilitate our planning, please fill out the registration form provided below, which you can retrieve from the ROSAT Service Area (general/workshop.form).
