This plot

To measure the illumination gradient over the FOV, four pixel-windows have been defined on the master lamp flat product, each one 100x100 large, and with a distance of about 100 pixel from the edge of the chip with centers at

  • x=150,y=512 (left)
  • x=850,y=512 (right)
  • x=512,y=150 (bottom)
  • x=512,y=850 (top)

Based on these four windows one flux gradient in x and one in y is calculated. The flux gradients are normalized to the size of the FOV (Delta x = 1024 pixel). E.g. xgradient = -0.2 means, that the counts are 20% less on the right rim than on the left rim of the detector.

In the read mode DET.NCORRS.NAME=FowlerNsamp, flats are contamined resulting in a different y-gradient, with respect to lamp flats acquired with DET.NCORRS.NAME=Double_RdRstRd. The gradient monitors a symptom, not a cause.

The latest date is indicated on top of the plot.

If configured,

  • data points belonging to the latest date are specially marked
  • statistical averages are indicated by a solid line, and thresholds by broken lines
  • outliers are marked by a red asterisk. They are defined as data points outside the threshold lines
  • "aliens" (= data points outside the plot Y limits) are marked by a red arrow ( or )
  • you can download the data for each parameter set if the 'Data downloads' link shows up
