Abstract
      This is the XMM-Newton Master Catalog and Public Archive table which has been created from information supplied to the HEASARC by the XMM-Newton Project. It is periodically updated as necessary. This database table contains the list of observations which have already been made by the XMM-Newton observatory, as well as those which are scheduled to be made in the near future (usually a a few weeks to a month ahead of the present). It does not contain observations which are scheduled to be performed further in the future, nor does it contain accepted observations which have not yet been scheduled. The list of all accepted XMM-Newton observations, including a number of ones which are unlikely to ever be carried out, such as accepted priority C targets, is available in the XMMAO Browse table. This table includes entries for both pointed data and for data obtained during spacecraft slews. The slew observations all have obsid values beginning with the digit 9 and, because they were not made at a fixed position, lack any positional information such as RA and Declination. Some XMM-Newton observations for which the archived data has become publicly available as indicated by the public_date parameter value, i.e., the proprietary period has expired, are not currently available at the HEASARC: such cases will have values of 'N' for the data_in_heasarc parameter. These datasets in most cases are available at the ESA XMM-Newton Science Archive (XSA) at <a href="http://nxsa.esac.esa.int/nxsa-web/">http://nxsa.esac.esa.int/nxsa-web/</a>. For much more detailed information on the XMM-Newton instruments and their operation, please refer to the XMM-Newton Users Handbook at <a href="http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/xmm/uhb/">http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/xmm/uhb/</a>. This database table was created by the HEASARC based on information supplied by the XMM-Newton Project at the following URLs: <pre> <a href="http://nxsa.esac.esa.int/ftp_public/heasarc_obslog/xsaobslog.txt">http://nxsa.esac.esa.int/ftp_public/heasarc_obslog/xsaobslog.txt</a> <a href="http://nxsa.esac.esa.int/ftp_public/heasarc_obslog/xsaslewlog.txt">http://nxsa.esac.esa.int/ftp_public/heasarc_obslog/xsaslewlog.txt</a> <a href="https://xmm-tools.cosmos.esa.int/external/xmm_mission_plan/odf_pps/catstrip.shtml">https://xmm-tools.cosmos.esa.int/external/xmm_mission_plan/odf_pps/catstrip.shtml</a> </pre> It is periodically updated within a few days of whenever these XMM-Newton Project's URLs are modified.
