Vadim Burwitz EPIC Calibration Meeting, October 27, 2006 RX J1856 HZ 43Sirius B Further work on cross-calibration results obtained from observations of the INS RX J1856, and the WDs HZ 43 and Sirius B Vadim Burwitz EPIC Calibration Meeting October 2006, Mallorca

Vadim Burwitz EPIC Calibration Meeting, October 27, 2006 Overview  Paper on this topic published in 2006 A&A 458, 541  Absolute Calibration Soft X-rays  dependant on model spectra of WDs what models to use?, uncertainties?  Analyse LETG + HRC-S data HZ 43A, Sirius B and RX J  determine spectral parameters  improve effective area.  Compare obtained photon spectra with EUVE and ROSAT and XMM (work together with Frank Haberl)
