FACT Run Catalog


Overview

A run is a continuous time interval during which the FACT telescope is usually pointing to a fixed position in the sky.

A typical run has a duration of 20 minutes.

The FACT RUN catalog allows to search for runs based on a set of selection keywords.


Data Products

To each run corresponds a FITS file grouping the FACT camera raw data and the relevant slow control auxiliary files.

All these data are stored in FITS format.

The Data are only accessible if publicly available.
