Chandra Interactive Analysis of Observations
Abstract
The Chandra X-R-ay Observatory has been launched on July 23 1999. The first public release of the Chandra data analysis system, CIAO (Chandra Interactive Analysis of Observations) will be available in the near future. The XMM Science Survey Consortium is considering the possibility of using the whole or parts of CIAO to analyse observations from the XMM satellite and during the meeting we will give presentations and demonstrations of parts of CIAO, including the new GUIs developed for "FirstLook" analysis, data filtering and browsing; SHERPA, the multi-dimensional, multi-missions modelling and fitting application; CHIPS, the Chandra Imaging and Plotting System; generic data manipulation tools and other applications.
