Abstract :
The APEX system is fully operational since 2011 and ready to provide well-calibrated data as standard processing output of the APEX PAF and the VITO CDPC to the user community. We sincerely hope that the freely available APEX Open Science Data Set will assist the community in gaining insights into the huge potential of APEX and help in assessing its applicability to specific domains of spectroscopy research.
