ACIS
ACIS DOSE Registered-Photon-Map
The steps we took to compute the dose map are;
- Level 1 Event files for a specified month are obtained from archive.
- Image data including I2, I3, S2, S3 CCDs are extracted from all event files.
- All the extracted image data were merged to create a month long exposure map for the month.
- The exposure map is opened with ds9, and check a distribution of count rates against energy. From this, estimate the upper threshold value. Any events beyond this upper threshold are assumed erroneous events such as bad pixels.
- Using this upper threshold, the data is filtered, and create a cleaned exposure map for the month.
- The exposure map from each month from the Sep 1999 is added up to create a cumulative exposure map for each month.
- Using fimgstatistic, we compute count rate statistics for each CCDs.
- For observations with high data drop rates (e.g., Crab nebula, Cas A), we corrected the observations by adding events.

The Mean Detrended CTI
We report CTIs with a refined data definition. CTIs were computed for the temperature dependency corrected data. Please see 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

Fid Light Drift
Fid light positions on ACA drift with time. The drift trends of Fid light 2 with ACIS-I and ACIS-S configurations are shown below.
The top panel shows Fid light 2 drift in ACENT I (app. along with -Y axis), and the
bottom panel shows that in ACENT J (app. along with Z axis). The unit is a pixel, and
one pixel is approximately 0.5 arcsec. The slope listed at the top right corner is
the change in a position per year (arcsec/yr). The vertical line on DOM = 1411 (Jun 1, 2003)
indicates a transition date of use of IRU-1 to IRU-2.

Radiation History
Radiation Zone Timing
Plotted below are radiation zone timing plots based on the following definitions of radiation zone:
- RADZONE - Ephin levels (in any of the E1300,P4GM,P41GM channels) are more than 1/3 of RADMON safing thresholds.
- RADMON - Radmon is disabled for radiation zone (as commanded based on OFLS model, for comparison with actual radiation levels).
- PERIGEE - Time of closest earth approach (for comparison)
