Astronomers usually measure the flux of an object by collecting light with a telescope, sending it through a known filter, and then determining the power. ... But astronomers usually give their photometric results in terms of magnitudes. ... Astronomers define an absolute magnitude that is independent of the distance of a star and only depends on the intrinsic properties of the object: the absolute magnitude is the magnitude the star would have if it were 10 parsecs away from the Earth. ...

... Ideally, this map contains the energy offset for each pixel (expressed in analog-to-digital units, adu). ... High-energy particles hitting the EPIC pn CCD during the offset map calculation may cause the affected pixels to get offset values which are incorrect by a few adu. ... Due to the specific method of deriving the offset map onboard, the affected areas occur often in blocks of four consecutive pixels along readout direction. ... The affected pixels usually get an offset which is too small. ...

To change the Scaling Function (how pixel values are binned into color levels): . ... For example, the basic grey-scale color map specifies no intensity for any color at the lowest color level, full intensity for all colors at the highest color level, with the red, green and blue intensities varying linearly for intermediate levels. ... At low bias, low color levels (i.e., low pixel values) will have non-zero intensities, while at high bias only high pixel values will have non-zero intensity. ...
