Public Release of Guest Observer Data in May and June, 1994
===========================================================
	by Brett A. Stroozas, Archive Manager

   As proprietary data rights for Guest Observer (GO) phase observations begin
to expire in May, 1994, the EUVE Archive group is working to make these data
sets available to the astronomical community.  The early results from the EUVE
mission have included many exciting and important scientific discoveries; we
encourage the scientific community to further delve into the archival data as
it becomes available.
   The table below lists all observations currently released as well as those
to go public in May and June of 1994.  The full data sets will be distributed
on 8mm tape in "tar" format (readable within IRAF); the 1-d FITS spectra only
will be accessible on-line via anonymous ftp (ftp.cea.berkeley.edu).
   Due to various scheduling constraints, observations are often carried out
in a series of pointings over a period of weeks or even months.  Each entry in
the table below corresponds to an individual non-consecutive pointing.  The
columns in the table are as follows:

 o Target -- Name of observed target.  Target names preceded by "*" were
	calibration observations.
 o RA/Dec -- Right Ascension and Declination (decimal degrees) of observed
	target in J2000 coordinates.
 o Exp -- Approximate exposure time in kiloseconds (actual exposure time varies
	by spectrometer channel).
 o Date -- GMT date on which the science observation was completed (yymmdd).
 o Q -- A two-character code used to indicate the quality of the archival data
	products.  The first character reflects the "level" of the processing
	software and reference data (level 2 is currently the best); the second
	reflects the care taken during the spectral extraction process ("n" is
	for nominal and "o" is optimal).  Although all data sets are currently
	"1n", the Archive group will (as resources allow) be reprocessing the
	observations in the near future.  If you don't wish to wait for us to
	get to reprocessing your favorite target(s), you are encouraged to order
	the data and reprocess it yourself using the EGO Center software and
	reference data which is available in the ftp site.
 o CD-ROM -- This column indicates which EUVE CD-ROM (if any) on which the
	observation is also available.
 o DataID -- This is a unique identification code for each observation, composed
	of the end date and target name for the observation (DataID codes for
	CD-ROMs are listed in the CD-ROM column).  The DataID codes must be
	used to order full GO data sets on tape or CD-ROM (see below).

   Once again, access to the 1-d FITS format spectra only will be available
on-line via the CEA anonymous ftp site (ftp.cea.berkeley.edu) in the
/pub/archive/spectra directory.
   Orders for full GO data sets must contain your name, full postal mailing
address, e-mail address (if any), telephone number (in case we need to contact
you for more information), and DataID(s) for the requested data set(s) as taken
from the list above.  Direct all orders via postal or e-mail to:

		EUVE Public Science Archive
		Center for EUV Astrophysics
		2150 Kittredge Street
		University of California
		Berkeley, CA 94720
		510-642-3032 (voice) or 510-643-5660 (fax)
		archive@cea.berkeley.edu

For domestic orders, please allow ~4 weeks for delivery (international orders
will take longer).  The Archive group will soon provide mechanisms for ordering
data via e-mail and Mosaic; these will be announced as they become available.
