Gain Notes for Revolution 1732

N.B.: During this revolution the electronics box processing JEM-X2
data was accidently switched off so that this is only incomplete
science, calibration and housekeeping data for this unit during revolution 1732.
What data there is, however, is very good and useable, like all normal
revolutions.

This is one of the later revolutions in the mission where the calibration
sources have become so weak that for the best energy determination and
IC Gain History table is needed.
 

To get optimal results with this revolution it is necessary to use the IC gain history.
See notes in revolutions prior to revolution 1433 to find out how to do this
if you don't already know.

All offline gain/energy corrections (including the IC tables) are based on the
two Fe calibration sources in JEM-X1, for both units.

Latest OSA software (version 10 and higher) automatically cuts out the first
Science windows of data from each revolution to ensure that people do not use data
from the instrument-settling period. This process can be overruled, but only by
experienced users.
	
JEM-X1: 

The Xe line analysis performed using the IC table shows very good gain
correction with all science windows (taken 2 at a time) having a Xe level 
within 2-3% of the ideal, except for the early settling points and one
slight outlier with a dubious fit. 
As usual, it is recommended that users avoid the first few science 
windows for energy-sensitive applications (automatically removed by OSA 10.0).


JEM-X2: 

Identical comments as for JEM-X1 above.

The JEM-X2 corrections are based on the JEM-X1 Fe calibration sources, since
all the Cd sources are now to weak to use.
