Darklevel Estimation and Subtraction • Dark-level of each Pixel “Dark” is determined onboard after every SAA passage in DarkInit / DarkUpdate DE-mode. • DE also calculate the Darklevel shift with time for each frame (8sec) for each (e.g. 64x64pixels) partition. We call it “LightLeak” value. • One LightLeak value for one partition • Pixel-Level “PHAS[]” = Raw-Pixel-Level – “Dark” – “LightLeak”(of the Previous Frame) • “LightLeak ” value shifts slowly in time. • Only when bright Earth come into the FOV, “LightLeak ” increases dramatically. It makes error in pixel levels, and thus in PHA and in event number. • *) D LLL(=increment of the LL from previous frame to the current frame) can be an indicator of such effect. • *) “LightLeak written in the XIS data products is in 1/8 ADU unit.

CTI correction in rev0.6 • Determine CTI_NORM for each quadrant • Column by Column difference is not taken into account. • Fit CTI_NORM as a function of time with a straight line. • Make a CALDB table which has columns, time, CTI_NORM, CTI_CNST etc. One row per a week. • Fill (modeled) CTI_NORM. • Correction is done with a critical ftool “xispi” to PHAS[], after Charge trail correction but in prior to event grading. • Corrected PHAS[] is not written in XIS event file. • In principle, gain shift by CTI is corrected in xispi (data reduction) not in response. • Line broadening is inevitable even with CTI correction. (Charge Injection data helps the broadening partially). The effect must be taken into account the response but not yet. • Response builder for that has almost prepared.
Results of CTI correction Mn-Kα 5.84keV (rev0.3) → 5.88keV (rev0.6) Cal src (rev0.6) by Nakajima @2006/01 OVIII line 0.654keV CTI parameters should be improved. (CI data were obtained on 2006/01.) Cygnus Loop (rev0.6) by Katsuda
Residual error in CTI Correction of rev0.6 • Simplified Assumptions: • CTI (ACTY=0,t)=CTI(ACTY=0,t0=2005Aug) • There must be degradation in CTI Imaging to Frame Store Area Transfer • CTI is proportional to Ex-0.5 • Need to be checked its accuracy with orbital data. • Mn-Ka peak ch history was made with G02346 • CTI correction is for each pixel PHAS[], G0 data should be employed. • We need to check the energy scale in rev0.6 data with various t, Ex, ACTY, (ACTX) • Feedback from SWG members will be acknowledged. Expected Energy is sometimes uncertain. Need detailed knowledge for each source, too. • (for XIS team) Ni-K line, Al-K etc in BGD might be useful, though its not certain they are imaging area event. • NOTE: If Charge-Trail correction parameters mismatch, not only energy scale but also (effective) QE is affected.
Revision of Ex-PHA Relation: XIS2 Segment 0 • In this case, the systematic offset of ~4ch (~15eV) in the soft X-ray region is largely reduced. Old: Single linear function fit: 2 parameter model (caldb=ae_detgain_20050703.ext) New: 2 linear functions for E<Esik and E>Esik: 4 parameter model (caldb=ae_xi2_makepi_2040822.fits) Si K edge (E=1839 eV)
PKS2155 (rev0.3) residuals • Structure around Si-Kedge is mainly due to broken line approximation of the Ex-PHA relation. • Should update Ex-PHA relation (PHA-PI conversion) in xispi

Bad (CTE) Columns X-ray image (number of events /pixel) • Bad CTE • Typically long trail in each event. • Sometimes flickering pixel is observed. • Rows near the readout node can be used. • Identification logic without accumulating 10^7events was developed. • EU= 21 bad columns/chip • XIS0=14, XIS1=50, XIS2=17,XIS3=24 • How should we do for adjacent columns ?
Calibration Status and Plan • QE degradation are going to be modeled as a function of time and distance from the FOV center.E0102, RXJ1856, DarkEarth. => arf-builder or emfbuilder. • QE at C-K line on the ground is ½ of the orbital QE? • CTI correction was introduced in rev0.6 processing. Need to be checked in various sources. (Energy, time, position dependence) Feedback from SWG is expected. • PHA->PI conversion (xispi) should be upgraded. • Charge Trail Correction (introduced from rev0.3) parameters should be checked with 2006 data. • Resolution decrease (inevitable with CTI correction) should be included in the response. rmf-builder can do it. CI measurement and CTI correction by each column might be used to save the degradation • Background data base is under construction. Bad Columns data base should be updated. • Data-Selection Criteria will be revised from (ELV>5 && DYE_ELV>20) to (ELV>5).
