Column Offsets Observed spectra are offset in different columns Each column (or part of)

Column Offsets Observed spectra are offset in different columns Each column (or part of) has a different offset… …which changes over time MPE EPIC Cal Meeting – May 2006 Darren Baskill: http: //www. star. le. ac. uk/~dbl XMM project: http: //www. src. le. ac. uk/projects/xmm/

How the offsets are calculated -Study the Al calibration line in given period &

How the offsets are calculated -Study the Al calibration line in given period & fifth of a column -Find the spectral peak, and model as a gaussian -The value of the offset may change at some point down a column! So search for (and model) other significant/believable peaks (maximum of 2 gaussians per fifth of a column/120 pixels) - Using relative height of gaussians, assume a relative length - Main assumption: there is no temporal change within a period 1/3 rd of photons, so 1/3 rd of length, so 40 pixels long 80 pixels long MPE EPIC Cal Meeting – May 2006 Darren Baskill: http: //www. star. le. ac. uk/~dbl XMM project: http: //www. src. le. ac. uk/projects/xmm/
