This is the FULL Health Check plot for monitoring the resolution of the GIRAFFE arclamp calibration data. We display here the resolving power R = λ0/Δλ. Δλ is the QC1 parameter mean_resol which is the mean of all accepted emission line widths. The reference values for the GIRAFFE resolution are indicated as red broken lines (taken from the User Manual).
Corresponding data from the GIRAFFE master calibration (re)processing project are available for the Medusa plots and marked separately. Note that these indicate that the corresponding data calculated between 2006-07-01 and 2008-01-01 have a systematic offset that is not real, due to some pipeline bug.
This plot monitors the HC data taken in high resolution (H525.8B) and low resolution (L543.1, Medusa1 and 2 only).
Up to 2008-01, these numbers were approximate. With pipeline version giraf-2.5 and higher (after that date) accurate numbers were provided. Only these ones should be taken for reference.
