- Missions
Chandra-ACIS, XMM EPIC-pn, XMM EPIC-MOS, Swift XRT, Suzaku XIS, MAXI SSC, Hitomi SXI
- Purpose (from April 2010 meeting)
- Provide a forum for cross-mission discussion and comparison of CCD-specific modeling and calibration issues
- Produce documents (SPIE level) discussing these comparisons, pros/cons of each approach
- Produce a document (A&A level?) discussing lessons learned and best practices for CCD-based instruments
