    • Einstein SSS Spectra and Lightcurves

    Metadata Updated: September 19, 2025

    This table is the Einstein Solid State Spectrometer catalog of observations and data products. It incorporates the most recent ice model that is described in the article on the SSS calibration by Christian, Swank, and White that appeared in the HEASARC journal, Legacy, No. 1. Also available as "associated" data products are the quasi-simultaneous observations made by the Einstein Monitor Proportional Counter. There are 634 distinct SSS observations in this database, 95% of which have associated MPC data products. The remaining SSS observations cover time intervals in which all MPC data was flagged as bad by the pCHIP program that was used to generate the MPC spectra and lightcurves. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
