AO-14 Target Allocations

Posted by ESA/ISOC on 2016/09/29

Note that proprietary data rights apply to the point or extended source(s) that have been approved by the Time Allocation Committee (TAC), and about which the PIs have been informed by ISOC. The data rights policy as outlined in the AO-14 documentation is applicable.

(1) Data rights are granted to any burst whose flux remains >10% above the pre-burst level for more than 5 minutes, on the accepted list of targets. Data rights on shorter Type-I X-ray bursts are granted to Prop ID: 1420012 (PI: Sanchez-Fernandez). If both kind of bursts (shorter and longer than 5 minutes) will be detected from the same source, data rights on the persistent emission of the correspondent sources will be shared among the two proposals.

(2) Data rights are granted to any burst whose flux remains >10% above the pre-burst level for less than 5 minutes, on the accepted list of targets. Data rights on longer bursts are granted to Prop ID: 1420007 (PI: Chenevez). If both kind of bursts (shorter and longer than 5 minutes) will be detected from the same source, data rights on the persistent emission of the correspondent sources will be shared among the two proposals.

(3) The known lines, excluded for this proposal, are at 511 keV (e+-e-), 1809 keV (Al26), 59, 1173, 1333 keV (Fe60), 68, 78, 1157 keV (Ti44), 847, 1238 keV (Co56), 122, 136 keV (Co57) and 2213, 4438, 6129 keV (H2, from the Sun)

Accepted proposals where the PI is from the Russian Federation follow a similar kind of policy for NRT data, except that the rest of the field will be open only to all Russian Federation scientists currently working at Russian Federation scientific institutes. Access to these NRT for such scientists will be provided by the Russian Science Data Centre for INTEGRAL located at the Space Research Institute in Moscow. The data rights policy remains valid for the 1-year proprietary period; however, the rest of the field under these proposals from the Russian Federation are open to the public when the CONS data becomes available.
