Russia Science Data Center (RSDC) of INTEGRAL project was founded in Space Research Institute in December 22, 1997. The main objectives of RSDC are receipt, storage, preliminary processing and distribution of data gathered during the experiment, for Russian scientific community.
Reasons for creating RSDC are:
- "Federal Space Program of Russia for 2000-2005", Section 6.
- "Agreement between the European Space Agency and Russia's Space Agency on cooperation in the INTEGRAL project" on December 18, 1997 (Article 4 item 12, Article 5 paragraph 4).
- Council Decision Sciences at the Cosmos No 10310-15 dated 8.X.1995 "On the work of the INTEGRAL project".
- Russian Federation Government Regulation N 1469-r dated 17 September 1999, signed by Vladimir Putin.
With dedicated funding from Academy of Sciences, RSDC installed and operates the most modern equipment for archiving, storage and processing of scientific data.
RSDC activity:
| INTEGRAL IBIS/ISGRI and JEM-X detector light curves This portal is dedicated to detector light curves from detectors of the telescopes onboard INTEGRAL mission. They are ISGRI (higher plane detector of the IBIS telescope), JMX1 and JMX2 - two detectors of the JEM-X telescope. Maintained by Ivan Chelovekov. |
| INTEGRAL Hard X-ray all-sky survey RSDC is actively participating in the all-sky survey carrying out with INTEGRAL observatory. See online catalog of X-Ray sources, maintained by Roman Krivonos. See also 9-year survey of the Galactic plane. |
| Bright X-Ray pulsars with INTEGRAL This project is devoted to the investigation of the pulse profiles and pulsed fractions for X-ray pulsars, maintained by
Sergey Tsygankov. |
| Galactic Bulge monitoring Sky maps of the Galactic Bulge region accumulated over the spacecraft orbit, maintained by Roman Krivonos. |
| Cleaning IBIS/ISGRI sky images Sky image cleaning with Wavelet decomposition and considering Galactic ridge X-ray emission (GRXE) allow significantly suppress sistematic noise in the INTEGRAL survey improving overall sensitivity. |
