This catalog records the incident rates for all particle species obtained with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) experiment on the International Space Station (ISS), a cosmic ray particle detector installed in May 2011, which covers the energy range of ~0.1 GeV - ~2 TeV. The catalog is available in both

The due date for IXPE Cycle 4 proposal submission is Sept 17, 2026. Proposals should be submitted via the HEASARC's ARK Remote Proposal System (RPS). For more information about this cycle, please visit the

IXPE Cycle 4 proposers should note that the required one paragraph work plan has been moved to the Non-anonymized Expertise and Resources (E&R) document and should be non-anonymized. Consequently, the page limit for the E&R document has now been increased to 2 pages. For more information, please visit the

The Chandra Source Catalog's Stacked Observation Detections Table (CSCSTACK) includes 493,236 detections (855,402 total entries consisting of detections plus photometric upper limits) based on 10,034 stacks of X-ray observations. The stacked-observation level allows composite properties to be reported from the co-added observations for detections that would otherwise not be visi...
