  • comparison of a celestial source (question)
    • E0102
      • has been observed extensively over time with ACIS and XIS
      • low energy lines very different from Mn K alpha
      • mostly on ACIS-S3
    • Perseus, other clusters
      • check ACIS time coverage, XIS and ACIS roll angles
      • Fe line centroid changes with kT, location in cluster

Comments from MWB

  • outline quite broad, might want to focus it more
  • (his) primary goal: understand the relationship between spectral resolution, radiation damage, and background
    • frame-to-frame variations in BG lead to variations in trap filling and wobbling of LSF
    • Suzaku especially good since we can already model the BG as a function of orbital position
  • secondary goal: construct a model of the background
    • test this model with a simulated BG (e.g. from Co60 source) in the lab (perhaps follow-up paper)
