17 Feb 2011 - Catherine's attempt to duplicate Bev's monthly XIS plots for ACIS I3 (FI) and S3 (BI). Each data point is a fit to 0.1 years worth of cold ACIS calibration source data, filtered to include only the upper corner regions like XIS and grades G02346. After some testing as to which fitting procedures were less sensitive to background variations (important for ACIS probably not as much for XIS), and robust against low signal-to-noise data, I chose to use a Gaussian plus a linear background component (mpfitfun.pro with some limits to prevent non-physical fits).

Feb 09, 2012 - Eric

Analysis of XIS1,3 Perseus data, re-PHA'd and re-graded by Bev. GRADE_BEV=0,2,3,4,6 were used along with PHA_BEV, which have no CTI or gain correction. A powerlaw+Gaussian was fit to the Fe XXV K line complex and best-fit center is plotted for segments 1 and 2 (=B and C), and 128-row bins at the bottom, middle, and top of the CCD.
