ISOPHOT news

Harald Krüeger



During as many of ISO 's slews as possible, ISOPHOT will be operated in 200 mode so as to make - serendipitously - a partial sky survey at a wavelength not covered by IRAS. A Collaboration on the ISO Serendipity Survey (CISS) has been established between the Max-Planck-Insitut für Astronomie, the ISO Science Operations Team, IPAC, Astronomisches Institut Potsdam and Imperial College of Science & Technology, London. The partners will jointly work on such tasks as implementing necessary instrument commanding; the routines to extract the data from the telemetry stream; design and performance of calibration observations; raw data processing and archiving; quick-look scientific analysis, which includes point source extraction, comparison with IRAS products, strip scan map production; and a final sophisticated analysis including product distribution.
