Is CHEOPS for you?

If you are considering whether CHEOPS is suitable for your science case, we have prepared a set of resources to provide first a broad overview, and then a more in-depth view, of what the mission is about and what it has to offer. You will find an overview of the technical capabilities of CHEOPS, including science cases, sky visibility, and performance, and learn how to apply for CHEOPS observing time. For newcomers, we recommend reviewing the resources in the following order:

  1. CHEOPS in brief - a 15-slide presentation designed to give a very top-level view of CHEOPS science goals and capabilities, with links to tools, additional documents, and relevant websites/webpages.
  2. CHEOPS in a nutshell - a more in-depth presentation with details on the mission, its science and its capabilities, together with information on the process for requesting CHEOPS observing time and the tools available to help with proposal preparation.
  3. CHEOPS Observers Manual - full, in-depth coverage of the mission and all observing guidelines.
  4. CHEOPS Publications - for expert readers.
