13 Science Support: evolution of tasks Proposal cycle: New proposal types New astronomers, Ph D New tools More sophisticated ideas Mission planning: increase efficiency fixed-time/coord observations Instruments New modes Improve on calibration Contingencies, time evolution, cros-cal with other missions Data analysis software New tasks New H/W platforms Pipeline data processing Optimized algorithms New science products Archive Need to adapt to new technologies: e.g. full reengineering Fixed tasks Check & optimize proposals Mission planning Conferences Sci Ops 2013 M.Santos-Lleo XMM-Newton, ESAC 12 Sep 2013 Pag. 13
14 How to manage? Budget pressure (with time) but constant load Key Team core team with great expertise from previous missions and/or high scientific background (mainly in X-ray astronomy, but not only) new people with a lot of enthusiasm and new ideas Different internal teams co-located and interacting Tools developed in the team or adapted from previous missions Keep inst. modes simple, while adapt to evolution and scientific community needs Smooth interaction with inst. experts, coordinated by ESA cal. scientist Smooth interaction with external S/W developers and taking over of their tasks as they leave, if internal resources allow it Keep interaction with community as highest priority: keep high level of support Sci Ops 2013 M.Santos-Lleo XMM-Newton, ESAC 12 Sep 2013 Pag. 14
15 Tools Mission Planning, ToO (very high rate), proposal technical evaluation tools: xrtops (adpated and significantly enhanced version of early rtops) OTAC support tool Conference organization tools Sci Ops 2013 M.Santos-Lleo XMM-Newton, ESAC 12 Sep 2013 Pag. 15
16 Calibration, Data analysis, processing and archive Cross-calibration with X-ray instruments of other missions Software analysis system (SAS): new releases per year, with changing platforms Data processing pipeline, transferred and running New archive: requirements prepared as per community needs Sci Ops 2013 M.Santos-Lleo XMM-Newton, ESAC 12 Sep 2013 Pag. 16
17 Community Support Helpdesk Check every proposal & contact PI for science optimization Documentation, manuals, reports Web Image Gallery SAS (data analysis) workshops Sci Ops Tutorial for CAS M.Santos-Lleo XMM-Newton, ESAC 11 June 2012 Pag. 17

19 Result + 13 years of operations: XMM-Newton remains one of the ESA flagship missions, ranked very high by advisory committees, keeps interest by scientific community and high productivity indicators: Oversubscription factor in AO12 (October 2012) was 5.9 in time Number of scientific papers in refereed journals making direct use of XMM-Newton data remains constant at rate of ~300/yr Number of astronomers: proposal PI+CoI, S/W and archive users remains at about 1500, with new people coming in (and going out). Conference attendance over 300 people. Sci Ops 2013 M.Santos-Lleo XMM-Newton, ESAC 12 Sep 2013 Pag. 19
