This plot
This plot shows two QC parameters measuring the
illumination distribution within IFU FLATs.
In a first step the median counts are measured in six dedicated windows:
S1R (slice 1 in red order), S2R (slice 2 in red order) , S3R,
S1B (slice 1 in blue order), S2B and S3B.
The QC parameter slice_rm is the rms of the three red order slice
counts.
The QC parameter flux_order_ratio is a relative difference between
the two flux averages:
fr = ( S1R + S2R + S3R ) / 3.0
fb = ( S1B + S2B + S3B ) / 3.0
flux_order_ratio = (fr - fb) / fr
The windows currently (2012-07-06) in use are (x1, y1, x2, y2)

2013-03-22: The UVB windows have been made narrower
The window sizes and positions are preliminmary and will be reviewed
to optimize the sensitivity.
2013-05-27: in the UVB-arm, blue orders are illuminated by the D2 lamp (< 350
nm) and red orders are illuminated by the QTH lamp (> 350 nm).
General information
Click on any of the plots to see a close-up version.
The latest date is indicated on top of the plot, data points belonging to that date are specially marked.
If configured,
- 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
