  5. AO4 Cycle: Call 30 Aug.2004 Close Phase I 08 Oct.2004 Open phase II for first PI group 10 Jan.2005 Open phase II for second PI group 17 Jan.2005 Close phase II for first PI group 21 Jan.2005 Open phase II for third PI group 24 Jan.2005 Planned maintenance (07:30z to 11:30z) 25 Jan.2005 Close phase II for second PI group 28 Jan.2005 Close phase II for third PI group 04 Feb.2005 Close XRPS 11 Feb.2005 SIGNIFICANT DATES

  6. closed on the 8th of October 2004 657 valid proposals requesting, in total, 101747 ksec AO4 covers one year with 14500 ksec observing time available ==> over-subscription factor is 7.0 484 PIs from 23 countries, mostly ESA member states, USA & Japan n-countries increases to 35 if co-investigators are considered about 1600 individual scientists involved AO4

  7. Users Group meeting #5 02/03 Jun. 2004 XMM-Newton 5-years in flight 10 Dec. 2004 all Calls over-subscription by x7 or more >700 refereed papers EPIC CAL/OPS meeting @ Mallorca 01-03 Feb. 2005 Cross-calibration Workshop at ESAC 16-18 Mar. 2005 EPIC Consortium Meeting @ Schloss Ringberg 10-13 Apr. 2005 Users Group Meeting #6 19/20 May 2005 The X-ray Universe 2005, El Escorial 26-30 Sep. 2005 ADASS, El Escorial 03-07 Oct. 2005 NB:An annular eclipse of the Sun will take place at Madrid at the interface between these last two conferences. SIGNIFICANT DATES (contd.)

  8. AT THAT MEETING WE KNOW WE MUST SHOW : decisive progress in the calibration cook-book for doing science with EPIC at < 1 keV Cross-calibration status document OTHER ITEMS DEMANDED BY UG : get RGS background accumulator into SAS 6.1 - done pursue 2005 Conference - done report on slew survey at next UG meeting - in progress get RGS Superfluxer into SAS 7.0 - in progress pursue EPIC background modeling as next priority XMM-NEWTON USERS GROUP (19/20 May.2005)

  9. The XMM-Newton and Chandra space observatories have operated for half a decade & continue to provide superb data which is changing our view of almost every aspect of the Universe at high E. In the near future AstroE-2 will provide enhanced capabilities for high res. spectroscopy, & Swift will soon join HETE-2 in making detailed studies of gamma-ray bursts. Significant new insights are also emerging from Integral's view of the sky at hard X-ray & gamma-ray energies. "The X-ray Universe 2005" symposium will showcase the results and discoveries from current and near-future missions and provide a forum for the discussion of astrophysical themes with a high-energy connection. Scheduled to last for 5 days & embrace the wide range of astrophysics in which XMM-Newton, Chandra & other missions are making important advances. Session topics will include: * stars, stellar systems, planetary & cometary studies * interacting binary systems, SNR, pulsars * the ISM and diffuse Galactic emission * AGN, galaxies, clusters of galaxies * surveys, population studies and the cosmic X-ray background * gamma-ray bursts Conference 2005 - Aims and Scope
