Radiation

A Radiation violation of the USAF Kp index was reported on Mon, 24 Oct 2002 08:37:04 (EDT).
Value = 6.00 (dynamic limit: 5.5)
No action needed.

Detrended CTI

CTI analysis is now computed with "detrending":
Detrend CTI = Measured CTI + S3 amplitude reject rate * Detrend factor.

Average of ACIS-I CCDs (MnKa) slope 8.940e-9 CTI/day
Detrended slope 9.160e-9 CTI/day

ACIS Warm Pixels


The following pixels consistently showed a bias level more than 5 sigma away the chip's mean level during this period.
We suspect some of the recurring bad pixels may be due to biases which are taken just after perigee, when the focal plane is somewhat warm. For more information see the link above and MTA monthly reports.



ACIS Focal Plane Temperature

For this period, 5 small peaks are observed.

Recent Observations

"Prob" means that there was probably bad time data included in the manual runs. This will be corrected in future processing.

Trending

This Week's focus HRMA THERMAL GRADIENTS
These are ground comps of adjacent HRMA thermistors. Most are very stable. Gradients with particularly secular changes include: RT25-RT26: and all other HRMA STRUT pairs, RT48-RT53: OBA Cone Panel, RT52-RT53: OBA Cone Panel, RT34-RT35: OBA Cone Panel (seasonal and secular effects), RT78-RT79: Spacecraft Struts, RT61-RT62: TFTE Cone (TFTE has many strong gradients)
