Conclusions 1. Vertical stripes appear in OTT(Sun on) - OTT(Sun off), but are not very clear in differences of std of TB in the FOV. 2. Thepattern of vertical stripes is stable. 3. Variations of vertical stripes are very small compared with differences in the OTT. 4. Good Sun correction should be on to avoid tails far away from Sun point. Future More descending orbits in November are needed to check the tails in the FOV of pure snapshots of X pol.
