This page allows you to search through the list of SAX
pointings ( Core Program and Guest Observers Program -GOP-)
approved for the first year of operations or through
the list of Science Verification -SVP- targets.
Two search types are supported:
a) search in a given sky region (search by coordinates), and
b) search for strings or numeric values (e.g. PI name,
Source name, proposal number etc.; search by parameter).
The requested information is returned in a table where links to the proposals abstracts are provided. If a source is listed more than once (because more than one pointing has been approved) and you whish to retrieve only one line use the suppress multiple entries option.
The table resulting from the query can be sorted by any of the parameters available under the sort by button. The equinox used both for input and returned coordinates can be specified with the Equinox button. The Max lines retrieved button is useful to limit the size of the returned table to a maximum number of lines. The default is 50 lines.
This interface has been developed at the SAX Science Data Center (SDC) and is based on the command-driven BROWSE DBMS provided by HEASARC at GSFC.
For the users who wish to download the entire catalog in ASCII format an option to do so is provided.
Please note that a number of TOO proposals have been merged and
therefore the exposure time associated to a given TOO pointing may not
refer to the original proposal.
