Einstein IPC Unscreened Photon Event List

This database table gives access to the IPC unscreened data set, which includes files in the event list format together with auxiliary files. This data set was generated by the Einstein Data Center and delivered to the HEASARC on CD-ROM. The Einstein Observatory (HEAO-2) operated from November 1978 to April 1981. Einstein carried the first fully imaging X-ray telescope in space and operated in pointing mode. The Imaging Proportional Counter had a bandpass of 0.2-3.5 keV and was one of two detectors onboard used for imaging. During the Einstein lifetime more than 4000 targets were observed with the IPC. This database table was last updated by the HEASARC in August 2005. Galactic coordinates were added and some parameters were renamed to adhere to the HEASARC's current parameter naming conventions. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
