Title: Ultra deep exposure of the Galactic Center region.
Proposal ID: 0120213
Subject category: Others
Principal investigator: Sunyaev
Institute: Space Research Institute
Abstract
We propose an ultra deep exposure (2 million sec) of the Center of the Milky Way. The data of such ultra
deep observation of the Galactic Center will undoubtedly be very rich and this is the most efficient way of
using precious INTEGRAL observing time. These data will be a valuable addition to and a continuation of the
INTEGRAL Core Program and when combined together they would become a decisive dataset for studies of high
energy phenomena
in this region. Should this proposal be accepted, the data will be made vailable during
the proprietary period to scientists of major astrophysical institutions of Russia.
