Scientific paper

The ESA scientific mission INTEGRAL (International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory) is dedicated to the fine spectroscopy and imaging of celestial gamma- ray sources in the energy range 15 keV to 10 MeV with concurrent source monitoring in the X-ray (3-35 keV) and optical (V-band) energy ranges. INTEGRAL (launch mass ~ 4000 kg) was launched on October 17th 2002 by a PROTON launcher from Baikonour, Kazakhstan. It was placed in a highly eccentric orbit providing long periods of uninterrupted observations with nearly constant background. The routine science operations started at the end of 2002 after a Commissioning phase of about 2 months. The Mission Operations Centre (MOC), that is located at the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) in Darmstadt, Germany, is responsible for all real time operations of the Platform and the Instruments. The paper is focused on the detection, isolation and recovery strategy of instrument anomaly, describing the approach and the mission specific tools used by the Flight Control Team (FCT) to prevent or mitigate the effect of instruments contingencies.
