  1. HESSI QUICKLOOK DATA, SOFTWARE AND SIMULATED DATA J McTiernan University of California, Berkeley jimm@ssl.berkeley.edu

  2. HSI_CONTACT2FITS • IDL routine, runs automatically in SOC (Science Ops Center) • INPUT: • Telemetry files (vc1, stored instrument state-of-health, vc3, stored science) • Orbit Data from GDS • Calibration Files

  3. HSI_CONTACT2FITS • Checks smex packet header info for uncorrected bit errors, checks packet header for invalid app_id, out of sequence packets, bad collect times, and flags bad packets. • Combines and sorts packets into one array. • Finds and inputs orbit data, determines file start and end times. Orbit files start and end in eclipse • Loops through orbits:

  4. For each Orbit: • Gets packets for the orbit time range • Checks for files with data in the same time range. If other files are found, the packets are read in and combined with the original array. (Old files are discarded after the new files are written). Filedb.status is set to -1. The file version number is incremented. • Duplicate packets are deleted. (Note that duplicate packets flagged as 'bad' are discarded first). • Checks file size, if there are more than 40000 packets (40 Mb), splits into smaller files. • Writes FITS file: “hsi_yyyymmdd_hhmm_nnn.fits” • Next orbit

  5. For Each File: • Creates Observing Summary, appends file • Calculates background, finds flares, creates Flare List, appends file • Makes Qlook Spectra, appends file • Makes Qlook Images, appends file • Fills database structure for those files, {hsi_filedb} • NextFile

  6. HESSI Data Products • FITS files: usually 1 per orbit, telemetry packets with appended catalog; env variable HSI_DATA_ARCHIVE • PNG files, images, spectra, and count rate plots, online; env variable HSI_DATA_ARCHIVE • Daily Catalog files, online: “hessi_catalog_yyyymmdd.fits”; env variable HSI_CATALOG_ARCHIVE ($SSWDB/hessi) • HESSI Flare List, online : hessi_flare_list.fits, also an ascii file: “hessi_flare_list.ascii”; env variable HSI_FLARE_LIST_ARCHIVE ($SSW/hessi/dbase) • Database file, contains file names, time ranges, online : “hsi_filedb.fits”; env variable HSI_FILEDB_ARCHIVE ($SSW/hessi/dbase) • CD list file, lists files on each CD, online ($SSW/hessi/dbase) • Clock Sync file, syncs spacecraft time to UT, online ($SSW/hessi/dbase)

  7. HESSI Data Products: Observing Summary • spin-averaged count rates in 9 energy bands, summed over detectors • particle detector rates • modulation variance, 2 Coarsest collimators • S/C position and velocity • Instrument Log: Housekeeping, State of Health data for systems • Background data for each detector segment, particle detector • Flags for: ['SAA_FLAG', 'ECLIPSE_FLAG', 'FLARE , ’NON_SOLAR_EVENT', 'FRONT_RATIO', 'DECIMATION', 'IDPU_CONTROL_VERSION_NUMBER’, 'CRYOCOOLER_POWER', 'COLD_PLATE_TEMP', 'IDPU_TEMP', 'COLD_PLATE_SUPPLY', 'HV28_SUPPLY', 'ACTUATOR_SUPPLY', 'FAST_HOUSEKEEPING', 'SC_TRANSMITTER', 'SC_IN_SUNLIGHT', 'SSR_STATE', 'ATTENUATOR_STATE']

  8. HESSI Data Products: Flare List • Id number • Start, peak and end times, in energy range [12.0, 25.0] keV • peak count rate, counts/sec/segment, in the energy range • total counts • Background Count rate and Time Range • Highest energy of observed photons • Flare position, arcsec from Sun center, and string rep. • Flags for flares that start/end in Eclipse or SAA, flares at file SOF, EOF • Solar-Non-solar event flag • Detector Id's (Fronts only are used for flares, both can be used for others) • File(s) which have the data • Active Region number

  9. HESSI Flare Position Image

  10. HESSI Data Products: Quicklook Spectra • Count and photon spectra as a function of time • Thermal + double power law photon spectra, • dE = E/2 energy resolution.

  11. HESSI Data Products: Quicklook Images • Images in the energy bands given by the Observing Summary, If possible, Cadence determined by Count Rate. (Presently only 4 second peak)

  12. Tests of SOC software • Local Tests: vc1 & vc3 simulated in raw data files, (no headers or frames). Realistic orbit data, HSI_CONTACT2FITS run from IDL session. Results in simulated data files online at http://hessi.ssl.berkeley.edu/data/test_data/. • Test of SOC scripts: vc1 & vc3, simulated data, HSI_CONTACT2FITS run in script, script then queues the data for CD production and FTP. • Test contacts: vc1 & vc3 from HESSI, no orbit data, no "flare", FITS file with Obs summary, but no flare list.

  13. Access to catalog data • IDL> obj = obj_new(‘hsi_obs_summary’) • IDL> data = obj -> getdata(obs_time_interval = ‘1-SEP-2000’+ $ [‘ 01:00’, ‘ 02:00’]) • IDL> data= obj -> getdata(filename =‘hsi_20000901_0000_001.fits’) • data is a structure with countrate and time • To plot: • IDL> obj -> plot

  14. Sample Obs Summary Plot

  15. Access to Catalog data (cont.) • 5 objects in obs_summary, • hsi_obs_summ_rate, • hsi_obs_summ_flag, • hsi_mod_variance, • hsi_particle_rate, • hsi_ephemeris • For data structure: • IDL> data = obj -> getdata(class_name = ‘obs_summ_rate’) • For object reference: • IDL> data = obj ->getdata(class_name = ‘obs_summ_rate’, /object_reference)

  16. Access to Catalog Data (cont.) • Two more objects: • hsi_obs_background, for each flare a background spectrum, same energy bands as the obs_summary, all detector segments • hsi_flare_list • Same syntax, getdata, plot, list, etc… • Some other routines (Kim): hsi_ui_flarecat() is a widget interface, hsi_read_flarelist, hsi_select_flare, hsi_format_flare

  17. HSI_FILEDB • Each file is recorded as an entry in the filedb structure. This is written into a FITS file, which is opened and read and rewritten for every ground station contact. The database file for all level 0 data will be distributed as part of the software. • Contents: • version = A version number • file_id = file name • orbit_start, orbit_end = Orbit number (GDS) at start and end of the file • start_time, end_time = data start and end times • status_flag = set to -1 if the file has been discarded, and the packets are contained in another file, set to 0 if the file exists • npackets = Number of packets

  18. SimulatingData: • Set "sim" keywords: See http://sprg.ssl.berkeley.edu/~jimm/hessi/sim_keywords_20010110.html • Also http://sprg.ssl.berkeley.edu/~cmj/hessi/doc.html • Sample: • IDL> a = [0.1, 1.0, 0.1, 3.0, 60.0, 3.0, 10.0, 1.5] • IDL> energy = 3.0+indgen(497) • IDL> photon_flux = f_vth_bpow(e, a) • IDL> o = obj_new('hsi_eventlist') (or o = obj_new('hsi_image')) • IDL> o -> set, sim_background = 1.0, sim_ut_ref = anytim('31-aug-2000 0:00'), sim_xyoffset = [-800.0, 200.0], sim_energy_band = [3.0, 500.0], sim_a2d_index_mask = bytarr(27)+1, sim_use_spectrum = 1, sim_atten_state = 1, sim_photon_flux_ptr = ptr_new(photon_flux), sim_photon_energy_ptr = ptr_new(energy)

  19. Simulating Data (cont): • Changing the image model: Here is a double source: • IDL> hsi_struct_def • IDL> model = replicate({gaussian_source_str}, 2) • IDL> model[0].ampitude = 1.0 • IDL> model[0].xypos = [0.0, 0.0] • IDL> model[0].xysigma = [5.0, 5.0] • IDL> model[1].amplitude = 0.5 • IDL> model[1].xypos = [20.0, 20.0] • IDL> model[1].xysigma= [3.0, 3.0] • IDL> o -> set, sim_model = model • Also, you can pass in an image array with a number of point sources • Curved gaussians (courtesy of M. Aschwanden) will be available soon

  20. Simulating Data (cont): • IDL> ;get eventlist • IDL> e = o -> getdata(/all, time_range = [0, 0], energy_range = [0, 0], $ a2d_index_mask = bytarr(27)+1) • IDL> ;write out the eventlist • IDL> o -> write, out_filename = 'hsi_10.fits', time_range = [0, 0] • Instead of using the flux and energy keywords, we certainly could have used the spec_model and spec_pars keywords (with /sim_use_spectrum set), e.g., • IDL> o -> set, sim_spec_model = 'f_vth_bpow' • IDL> o -> set, sim_ spec_pars = [0.1, 1.0, 0.1, 3.0, 60.0, 3.0, 10.0, 1.5]

  21. Simulating Data (cont): • We also can use sim_photons_per_coll as before: • IDL> o -> set, sim_photons_per_coll = 1000, $ sim_bkgd_photons_per_coll = 100

  22. Simulating Flares: • Hsi_sim_flare: Online, partially tested, includes input spectra in terms of photons/sec/keV/cm2, spectra in terms of spectral models and parameters different spectra and time histories for different sources, different Attenuator States, etc. • IDL> hsi_sim_flare, /random_flare chooses random everything. • IDL> spec_pars = fltarr(8, 3) • IDL> spec_pars[*, 0] = [0.01, 1.0, 0.01, 6.0, 60.0, 6.0, 10.0, 1.5] • IDL> spec_pars[*, 1] = [0.1, 1.0, 0.1, 3.0, 60.0, 3.0, 10.0, 1.5] • IDL> spec_pars[*, 2] = [1.0, 0.2, 0.01, 6.0, 60.0, 6.0, 10.0, 1.5] • IDL> hsi_sim_flare, spec_pars = spec_pars, flare_start_ut = '2-nov-2002 01:00', flare_end_ut = '2-nov-2002 01:12', flare_peak_ut = '2-nov-2002 01:20' • /neupert_effect keyword simulates the Neupert Effect • See http://sprg.ssl.berkeley.edu/~jimm/hsi_sim_flare.html

  23. Simulated Data Set • hessi.ssl.berkeley.edu/data/test_data • Includes 7 days (31-Aug,to 6-Sep-2000) • Includes Level 0 files, daily catalog files hsi_flare_list, and hsi_filedb file • To use: Load data into local directory • Set $HSI_DATA_ARCHIVE to that directory • Set $HSI_FILEDB_ARCHIVE to that directory (for on-orbit data HSI_FILEDB_ARCHIVE will be set to $SSWDB_HESSI/dbase.) • Every version of the Qlook software will be compatible with this data set. (Each qlook object and structure has a version number which is recorded in the FITS binary table for that object or structure. The information about which version is current is kept in the routine HSI_QLOOK_VERSION_CONTROL) • Flare info, as simulated, can be found in $HSI_DATA_ARCHIVE/all_flares.sav
