... Change to Pulse Height Filtering to Mitigate Effects of Gain Sag in the COS FUV Detector . ... Changing Programs & Resolving Problems . ... Detectors . ... The COS FUV detectors convert each ultraviolet photon into a shower of electrons, for which the detector electronics calculate the X and Y coordinates and the total charge, or pulse height. Prolonged exposure to light causes the FUV detectors to become less efficient at this photon-to- electron conversion, a phenomenon called "gain sag." ...
