The European Space Agency's (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESA's second cornerstone of the Horizon 2000 Science Programme. It carries 3 high throughput X-ray telescopes with an unprecedented effective area, and an optical monitor, the first flown on a X-ray observatory. The large collecting area and ability to make long uninterrupted exposures provide highly sensitive observations.

Scicat allows users to access the metadata of raw and derived data which is taken at experiment facilities. Scientific datasets are linked to proposals and samples. Scientific datasets are can be linked to publications (DOI, PID). SciCat helps keeping track of data provenance (i.e. the steps leading to the final results). Scicat allows users to find data based on the metadata (both your own data and other peoples’ public data). In the long term, SciCat will help to automate scientific analysis workflows.
