Header Keyword | Description |
CTE_NAME | Name of CTE algorithm. |
CTE_VER | Version of CTE algorithm. |
PCTETAB | File containing CTE correction parameters. |
PCTERNCL | PCTE read noise level. Default value is 5.0. |
PCTENSMD | Read noise mitigation mode. Possible values: |
0 (no smoothing) | |
1 (normal smoothing, default) | |
2 (strong smoothing) | |
PCTETRSH | Pixels taken below this threshold by CTE correction are re-corrected with a smaller correction. Default value is -10. |
PCTESMIT | PCTE readout simulation iterations. |
PCTESHFT | PCTE readout number of shifts. |
PCTEFRAC | CTE time scaling value. |
The PCTETAB reference table, as well as the DKC files, are now listed on the ACS Dynamic Reference file pages.
