Gain Response of the HRC-I

These data come from laboratory measurements of the flat field response conducted at SAO before and after the adjustment to the High Voltage and Threshhold settings. The raw data were binned such that 128x128 pixels from the raw data are presented here as a single resolution element. The axes (U and V) are the same as those described in the HRC calibration documentation and elsewhere on this site.

Two sets of data are presented. The v1 data are results taken from the HRC IPI web pages while the v2 data are the average maps derived by Charlie Wilton of the CXC. ("v3" - median maps - coming soon)
