Why Use E0102 as a Calibration Source for X-ray Astronomy?
Well-characterized spectrum, both the Chandra HETG and XMM RGS have observed the object · The spectrum is relatively simple by astrophysical standards, no or very little Fe, strong lines of O, Ne, and Mg · Extended source so pileup effects are minimized · Constant source · The O and Ne lines sample an energy range in which the on-board calibration source does not have strong lines · Low-energy part of the bandpass is always a challenge to calibrate

·

We are VERY close to agreeing on the model spectrum !!!

Spectral Model: Calibration vs. Astrophysics
Primary Objectives are to measure the gain, the spectral redistribution function, and detection efficiency in the 0.5 -2.0 keV range · Our immediate concern is to develop a model useful for calibration, not to develop an astrophysically-meaningful model, · We use a model consisting of Gaussians for the lines identified by the HETG and RGS, a bremsstrahlung for the continuum, and a two component absorption (Galactic and SMC) · Line energies are fixed at the true values and the widths of the Gaussians are fixed at zero, so the only parameter which varies is the normalization · Pollock has added recombination edges to the RGS model and has non-zero widths for some of the lines · When fitting CCD spectra, ratios of the F-I-R lines in a triplet are fixed to the RGS and/or HETG value
