From jcirtain@head.cfa.harvard.edu Fri Jun 10 17:03:21 2005 Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2005 17:03:21 -0400 (EDT) From: Jonathan Cirtain To: Mark Weber Cc: Leon Golub , Ed Deluca , Jay Bookbinder , Peter Cheimets , mario cosmo , Jason Scott , wpodgorski@cfa.harvard.edu Subject: E2E 20050610 Shift-A Science Report. Today we had a productive shift. We were able to finish the filter transimission measurements for every filter at 5 different energies. These will be compared to the predicted transmissions at the different energies. Preliminary analysis indicates that the observed transmissions match well the predictions. It willl be necessary to recalculate the predicted numbers for the C-poly as these could have changed slightly with the addition of the thicker layer of polyimide. I have a table of all of the results locatoed on the web page. See: http://hea-www.harvard.edu/solarb/Data/e2e/20050610/shift_A/shift_A.html We also had a strange file transfer problem. A file, of standard name, could not be transfered from the Japanese EGSE to Jon Chappell's archive machine. Tis was never resolved, although filename was changed on the J-side EGSE and copied by JCH. The shift change occured at the beginning of the section 16.1 tests. This test will measure the telescope changes as a function of exposure time. We will try to measure the linearity of the CCD and remove the 2 lamda filter to saturate the dectector with the inclusion of the brehmstrallung radition in the signal. --Jonathan _____________________________________________________________________________ Dr. Jonathan W.
