... A data set contains a science frame, all its associated raw calibration frames and the master calibration frames created by combining and processing the raw calibration frames. ... Either one creates a MIDAS catalogue which contains the names of all single calibration frames to be combined in to the master frame, or, in the case of pipe line reduction, one use the Association Table. ... The names of single calibration frames are however also available in the Association Table. ...

... The processing of these associated images presents new challenges to the HST data processing pipelines, which heretofore operated only on single images. ... Stage 1 (CALNICA) calibrates individual exposures without information from other members of the association. ... Stage 2 of calibration (CALNICB) only operates on associated images that have previously gone through CALNICA processing, and creates combined images for each distinct (non-overlapping) pointing within the association. ...

The overall efficiency (including atmospheric transmission, reflectivity of the telescope mirrors and overall efficiency of the optics and of the detector) for broad-band imaging should be about 25% in H and K, and about 15% in J. The main noise source for both broad- and narrow-band imaging should be the photon noise associated to the background+source flux. ... Flat fielding (and possibly background subtraction) might increase the noise by a factor 2 ? ...
