ROSAT Observation Log
The ROSATLOG database table has been created for the purpose of providing a complete, accurate, and easily accessible record of ROSAT observations. ROSATLOG is made by cross-correlating ROSAT observation records with the short-term timeline and contains information about all pointings executed by the satellite during the performance verification (PV) and AO phases. For each observation, details are given concerning target name and coordinates, pointing start and stop times, PI name and country, ROSAT Observation Request sequence number, and more. ROSATLOG is based on the short-term timelines and observation records generated at the German ROSAT Science Data Center at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE) and sent to the ROSAT Guest Observer Facility at Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). Many duplicate entries were removed from the HEASARC implementation of this catalog in June 2019. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
