Instrument Response: Overview
· A detailed mass model was created "by hand" based on technical drawings. · Several "compression" schemes were devised to make the MC problem manageable in terms of CPU and storage. · Simulations of the BLC calibration were performed at GSFC using the mass model and "MGEANT" MC SW. · Comparison of these simulations with data led to improvements in the MC software and the mass model.


Instrument Model

Instrument Response Corrections
Mask honey-comb support transmission correction curve. Points are the measurements for 4 offset angles, and the curves are from MC simulations.

Photo-peak effective area correction factors for single, double & triple events. Extrapolation to Lowest and highest energies.


IRF Compression
· The computational problem scales as ~Nsky x Ndet x Nch, per mono-energetic input energy with statistics at each vertex, which becomes unmanageable · Savings was achieved first, by tracking detailed MC events for vertices within single a "piewedge" subset of the detector array · This is then convolved with a full (i.e. all directions) database of absorption path-lengths derived from the ray-tracing events


IRF Compression
· This leads to 2 large, databases of
­ spectra per detector-array vertex per direction (DMATRIX) ­ absorption path lengths per direction (over sampling instrument resolution by ~5X (LMATRIX)

· From these, the basic response data set, or IRF is created
­ 5 dimensional object, NE x N x N x Ndet x Nspc-cmp ­ this comprises the basic end-user response database which is used directly in image reconstruction ­ and from which XSPEC "ARFs" are extracted


Response Decomposition
The response is approximated as a convolution of ray-tracing and detailed photon-propagation terms:

R(d , , , E , ch) =



Li (d , , , E ) Di(d , , , E , ch)

Further computational and storage economy are achieved by recognizing that the response continuum can be reconstructed as a linear combination of components.
