Public NuSTAR Archive at the HEASARC
Abstract
The archive for the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array mission, the first focusing high-energy X-ray mission, opened at the HEASARC on August 29, 2013. The data archive contains the output of the NuSTAR processing pipeline, including cleaned and calibrated event files and high-level scientific products. The number of public observations has grown rapidly from the initial set of 29 observations. Software for analyzing the NuSTAR data is available at the HEASARC (HEASoft release version 6.14 or later), and calibration data for NuSTAR is now in the HEASARC's Calibration Database (CALDB). Documentation of the NuSTAR mission and its analysis software is found at http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/nustar/, and there is a web form to obtain expert assistance. We will report on the latest download rates of NuSTAR data.
