XMM-Newton Users Handbook update for AO-13
==========================================
The XMM-Newton Users Handbook (UHB) has been updated to version 2.11
in preparation for the next Announcement of Opportunity (AO-13).
The UHB contains information on the instrumentation on board
XMM-Newton and serves as the main technical support document for
proposal preparation, based on which potential XMM-Newton users can
assess the technical feasibility of their planned observations.
The XMM-Newton Users Handbook is available on-line at
http://xmm.esac.esa.int/external/xmm_user_support/documentation/uhb
Alternatively, pdf and postscript versions of the UHB can be
downloaded from the "XMM-Newton Proposer's Info and Manuals" portal
at
http://xmm.esac.esa.int/external/xmm_user_support/documentation
SAS Users Guide updated
=======================
The Users Guide to the XMM-Newton Science Analysis System has been
updated for SAS version 13.0 in order to include the latest
information on data analysis methods and updated SAS tasks.
The guide is available from the XMM-Newton Proposers Info Documents
and Manuals Web page (Section: Data Analysis) at:
http://xmm.esac.esa.int/external/xmm_user_support/documentation/
The html version of the SAS Users Guide can directly be accessed under
http://xmm.esac.esa.int/external/xmm_user_support/documentation/sas_usg/USG/
Yours sincerely,
XMM-Newton SOC
