... Watchouts . ... Any XMM-Newton users, who need to convert OM count rates in the optical and UV filters into fluxes (expressed, e.g. , in erg/cm/cm/s/A), can do it by following any of the methods we outline below. OM count rates can be obtained with SAS. ... UVW1 . ... UVM2 . ... convert from count rate, obtained with SAS (files *SWSRLI*, corrected count rate in CORR_RATE column), to flux, selecting the most appropriate factor for the chosen spectral type and filter from the following Tables: . ...

... The J, H and K bands are characterized by a bright background, such a background is mainly due to the emission of atmospheric lines and of thermal radiation. ... If the source cover a large fraction of the slit, spectra off-source must be observed to adequately sample the sky background. ... The on chip integration time (time spent in each position of the slit) must not exceed 40 seconds in J and H bands and 60 seconds in K band. ... We suggest a sequence of 10 for each elementary integration time. ...

... This paper describes the main algorithms used by the Einstein Level One processing to create the exposure masks and the background maps for Einstein IPC images, and how these algorithms were recreated in the IRAF environment. Our goal was to recreate the algorithms used by the Level One Processing to create exposure masks and background maps for Einstein Image Proportional Counter (IPC) data (cf. sections 2.5 and 2.7 of Harnden et al. ...
