Orbital Calibration Items • Energy Scale • Tracking evolution of Charge Transfer Inefficiency (CTI) • Verification of Energy Scale in orbit • Quantum Efficiency • Verification of QE measured on ground • Monitoring possible change of QE in time • Background • Energy Resolution and Response Profile Updating Calibration Data Base continuously. Software tools are also required to be updated.

  18. Summary • 4 XIS CCD cameras are functioning properly • More than 100 targets were observed already. • Gain and energy resolution are monitored with built-in calibration source. CTI correction to compensate radiation damage induced gain decrease (~2%/year) is introduced. • Energy scale error in rev0.6 processing is 1%-2%. Rev0.7 processing with higher accuracy is now almost ready to use. • QE at high energy is almost as expected (error ~10%) from Crab data. • Low energy QE suffers significant degradation. • Possibly C-dominant material put on Optical Blocking Filter (OBF) • (Details will be presented in a separate paper) • Activity to update calibration and their tool is under going.
