• The Mean Detrended CTI

  From this month, we report CTIs with a refined data definition. CTIs were computed for the temperature dependency corrected data. Please see new CTI page for detailed explanation. CTI's are computed for Mn K alpha, and defined as slope/intercept x10^4 of row # vs ADU. Data file here

  
  
  CTI Slope (after DOM 200)

  CTI slopes were computed for data point after DOM 200 and inside of 1 sigma deviation. Using only data point in 1 sigma range. A independent variable is date, and a dependent variable is CTI.

• Focal Plane Temperature

    
         The Mean (max) FPT: -117.45      std dev: 1.36
                 mean width:    0.45 days std dev: 0.26 
  

  
  We are using 10 period moving averages to show trends of peak temperatures and peak widths. Note, the gaps in the width plot are due to missing/corrupted data.
  

• Bad Pixels
  

  The plots below were generated with a new warm pixel finding script. Please see Acis Bad Pixel Page for details.

• Acis Count Rate Plot This monitors the ACIS count Rate vs. EPHIN count Rate.
  No sources are removed. For daily updates see: Ephin/Acis Info




• Science instrument background rates
  This page shows scientific instrument background data based on Acis observations. A source region file is generated using get_srcregions and then the input event file is filtered using the regions in that file to remove the sources.
  
  

  Name	Low (keV)	Hight(KeV)	Description
  SSoft	0.00	0.50	Super soft photons
  Soft	0.50	1.00	Soft photons
  Med	1.00	3.00	Moderate energy photons
  Hard	3.00	5.00	Hard Photons
  Harder	5.00	10.00	Very Hard photons
  Hardest	10.00		Beyond 10 keV

  
  
  
  
  

  The following three plots show trends of SIB for the past one year. CCDs shown here are CCD3, CCD5, and CCD7. Fitted lines are linear fit after eliminating extreme out layers. For >10 keV plots, 2 lines are fitted. One is with a 13 keV filter, and another without.

• ACIS Rejected Events
  The links below are plots of stat1 quantities, showing on-board rejected events. The average EVTSENT, DROP_AMP, DROP_POS, DROP_GRD, THR_PIX, and maximum BERR_SUM obtained from L1 acis*stat1.fits files are plotted for each observation. CTI observations are plotted separately from regular science observations.
  
  Column definitions:
  • EVTSENT - number of events sent in data record
  • DROP_AMP - number of discarded events due to corrected amplitude
  • DROP_POS - number of discarded events due to CCD position
  • DROP_GRD - number of discarded events due to grade code
  • THR_PIX - number of pixels above respective threshold level
  • BERR_SUM - number of pixel bias errors so far in science run
  
  Note the half-life decay of the CTI source is clearly evidenced in the steady decline of EVTSENT.
