Recent Updates to the LETG/HRC-S Effective Area - CALDB 4.2.1

Relative adjustments to the LETG higher order efficiencies

ACIS Operating Modes 1. Timed event mode (TE) 2. Continuous Clocking Mode (CC) Telemetry Formats 1. Very faint (VF) 5 x 5 2. Faint (F) 3x3 3. Graded

ACIS CC Faint Mode Calibration ACIS Flight Grades

CC Faint Mode Calibration Comparison of TE and CC Flight Grade Distribution New SI Mode for CC observations telemeters all flight grades except 24, 107, 127, 214, 223, 248, 251 and 255

Order sorting plot for HETG/ACIS-S spectrum 3 column averaged trap map Single column trap maps are now being generated for CC-F mode data based on the AL-Ka line in the ECS data

HETG/ACIS-S observations of bright sources in CC-G Mode

Features near the Si-K edge in HETG/ACIS-S observations of bright sources in CC-G mode

New CC Mode Calibration Products  Single column trap maps for all BI chips to apply cti corrections to CC-F mode data.  QE tables for old CC SI_Mode and new CC SI_Mode (additional flight grades)  Method for applying cti-corrections to CC-G mode data.
