Radiation

Two very dynamic centers of activity have emerged on the sun. NOAA Region 484 developed rapidly over the past week and is now one of the largest sunspot clusters to emerge, approximately 10 times larger than Earth. The solar activities are highest in the past 30 years. Observations are interrupted three time during the last week, and almost no observation during this period:

For details about science interruption due to the solar activity, please see ACE Data Plot Page (2003:301 plot is not complete yet).

Detrended CTI

Average of ACIS-I CCDs (MnKa) slope 8.525e-9 CTI/day
Detrended slope 8.652e-9 CTI/day

ACIS Warm Pixels

We display all bad pixels showed up in past, and, if any, previously unknown bad pixels appeared in the last 14 days. We also list hot pixels (defined as 1000 above the average of bias background). Warm columns 509-514 are probably due to a computational artificial effect due to boundaries.


ACIS Focal Plane Temperature

For this period, 1 large peak, and one small peak are observed.

SIM Movements

Recent Observations

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