The Multimission Archive at STScI (MAST) Newsletter disseminates
information to users of the HST, FUSE, IUE, Copernicus, EUVE, HUT,
UIT, WUPPE, IMAPS and VLA-FIRST data archives supported by the MAST.
Inquiries should be sent to archive@stsci.edu.
MAST now has Interstellar Medium Absorption Profile Spectrograph
(IMAPS) 1 raw data available for retrieval. The web site for IMAPS
data is at
http://archive.stsci.edu/imaps/. Currently
only the raw data are available. Soon, the corrected, co-added files
will be added to the archive. MAST will archive the IMAPS 2 data when
they are no longer proprietary and are received from the IMAPS
project. For both flights IMAPS was flown as a partner with the
Orbiting Retrievable Far and Extreme Ultraviolet Spectrometer (ORFEUS)
experiments. MAST will archive data from the Berkeley Extreme and
Far-UV Spectrometer as they become available. The data from the first
ORFEUS mission are currently being calibrated, and are expected to
arrive from the project this fall. The data from the second flight
should follow a few months after delivery of the first set. MAST also
plans to archive the data from the ORFEUS 2 Far Ultraviolet
Spectrometer, when those data are available. No data was acquired for
the FUV experiment during the ORFEUS 1 flight.
Besides the previously supported platforms, a WindowsNT-compatible
version is now supported and available for download from the above URL.
Note that one still must purchase IDL in order to use any of the
IUEDAC routines.
