* *Missions* Chandra-ACIS, XMM EPIC-pn, XMM EPIC-MOS, Swift XRT, Suzaku XIS, MAXI SSC |
...
* *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 |
...
* *Short-term Goals (from April 2010 meeting) |
...
* ** Provide structure for organizing/sharing information (this wiki) |
...
*** Library of links to key papers and memos, indexed by mission, topic (i.e. CTI monitoring, correction, etc.) (in progress, see below) |
...
** Establish three sub-groups for detailed study of topics of special |
...
interest *** [Residuals around the Si-K edge|Residuals around the Si-K edge] (Miller) |
