... As of October 1, 2009, the global rate for the STIS NUV-MAMA dark current has still been occasionally reaching values as high as 13500 counts/s. This high dark current will force use of a signficantly smaller buffer time than would be otherwise needed, and in many cases may push the count rate high enough to make time-tag observations impractical. ... However, we instead found for the NUV MAMA detector an initial global dark rate of between 9000 and 18000 counts/s (a mean of 0.013 counts/s/pixel). ...
