Calibration Access and Data Handbook

Description

This CCF provides frame times and time correlations per mode.

The CCF contains the following tables:

FRAMETIME:

Table is not used and can be dropped in future versions of this CCF (unless used by QLA).

Attributes:

None.

Columns:

MODE_ID:

Numerical ID of observing mode (see 4.3.32).

FRAME_TIME:

Frame integration time [ms].

TIMECORR:

Used/accessed by CAL_correctTime(). Table with data controlling fine-time adjustments to event times as described in "Time resolution capabilities of the XMM EPIC pn-CCD in different readout modes", M. Kuster et al., Eq. (1)-(6) + (7) + (10).

Attributes:

None.

Columns:

MODE_ID:

Numerical ID of observing mode (see 4.3.32).

FRAME_TIME:

Vector column of length 3 with parameters of fine-time adjustments.
