Radiation

Slightly unsettled environment this week, but no alerts or concerns.

ACIS/Radiation Environment correlations

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 9.490e-9 CTI/day
Detrended slope 9.255e-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, 3 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 COMP - ground computed psuedo msids. These are computations made on other MSIDS, usually to convert units, calculate wattage or HRMA gradients.

Trends last reported on Jul 04.
Only the most interesting or representative msids are shown below. For a full listing choose the bulletted link.
