These recipes are an informal and evolving collection of procedures, strategies and caveats developed or recommended by members of the Chandra ACIS Instrument Team. They are provided without any warranty, provision for portability, or user support. They are based on a variety of software systems (e.g. TARA, CIAO, FTOOLS, Perl, ds9, C, etc.). Many of the methods here are being functionally reproduced in CIAO Science Threads.

We would appreciate that use by non-ACIS Team scientists in publications, documents or Web pages be accompanied by an acknowledgment, such as "We thank the Chandra ACIS Team for advice on data analysis".
