XMM-Newton Science Analysis System Page: 1 backcorr August 16, 2005 Abstract backcorr makes a background spectrum appropriate to the accumulation region used for a given source spectrum. The task calls arfgen twice; once for the source region and once for the background region. ... EPIC backcorr corrected background spectrum [1] 8 Algorithm subroutine backcorr Arfgen computes the effective area curves for both the source (arf_in_src.arf) and background (arf_in_bkg.arf) regions. ...

... Among the objectives of Principal Components Analysis are the following. dimensionality reduction; љ . the determining of linear combinations of variables; љ . ... identification of groups of objects or of outliers. ... Finding a set of principal axes allows the objects to be adequately characterised on a smaller number of (artificial) variables. ... Reduction of dimensionality is practicable if the first new axes account for approximately 75 % or more of the variance. ...

... The HST uses an onboard model of its orbit to perform in real-time various control functions relating to spacecraft operations and observation support. ... New coefficients for the ephemeris are updated every other day, and are archived as FITS keywords for each HST observation data set. Using these coefficients,an observer can perform a variety of calibration and characterization calculations relating to the orbital position and velocity of the telescope. ...

CCD Performance . ... The dark current appears to have two components: one from electronic sources in the CCD, and a second component whose strength correlates with the cosmic ray flux. ... As of this writing, the " DARKTIME" keyword in the WFPC2 image headers does not reflect correctly the actual time during which the CCD collects dark current. ... External exposures of 180s or longer made with the serial clocks off (CLOCKS=NO; the default setting) suffer an additional 60s of darktime (restart=1). ...

. Merging cluster DLSCL J0916.2+2951 and its three matter components. Overlaid on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) color image of the galaxies is the total mass distribution (blue) based on WL analysis of the HST images and the cluster gas distribution (red) based on Chandra X-ray observations. The bulk of the collisional gas is located between the two collisionless galaxy and mass concentrations, indicative of a dissociative merger.
