VizieR Online Data Catalog: Space telescope RM project. II. Swift data (Edelson+, 2015)

In 2014 February-June, Swift executed a monitoring campaign on NGC5548 that was ground-breaking in two respects: 1) it was comprised of 360 separate visits over a ~4 month period, of which 282 successful visits were obtained, for a sampling rate (after removing bad data) better than one visit every ~0.5day, and 2) it utilized all six UVOT filters in each visit, with 239 (84%) providing usable measurements in all six filters. The Swift XRT data were gathered in photon counting mode (see table 3).

In addition, a parallel HST emission-line reverberation mapping (RM) campaign yielded daily UV spectroscopic monitoring of NGC 5548 over a slightly longer period (see Paper I, De Rosa+, 2015, J/ApJ/806/128).
