We release the following data to the public, so that researchers can
experience the capability of Suzaku.
Important notice:
The data on this Web page are preliminary
version. Instrument calibration is being established. Detector
background can not be estimated precisely yet at this moment,
especially in the HXD data. More work is needed to get accurate
solution of the spacecraft attitude. Thus, it is not recommended to
draw scientific results based on these data files. Please use these
data at your own risk.
The public data are now in the official data
archive at ISAS
(DARTS) and NASA/GSFC (HEASARC) as part of the official V1.0
pipeline processing. Please download the data from these
sites.
List of Targets
Each dataset contains cleaned event files and images of the XIS,
cleaned event files, spectra, background of HXD (but not all the
datasets), and an auxiliary HK (EHK) file with information on
elevation from the earth rim, cut-off rigidity, etc.
Calibration Notes and Response Matrices
Please read the following notes carefully before you use the public data.
Analysis Software etc.
All the data are in the standard FITS format, and hence you can use
software like XSELECT, XSPEC, etc. If you don't have them, please
download them from the following site.
