Configuration/Radiation Overview for July 2009

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.
  Note: Counts and RMS's of Cumulative maps are lower than the previous months. This is because we excluded extreme outliers.

ACA Trending - Entire Period
ACA Trending - Jul 2009

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).
