Talk

After more than 6 years in flight and 100k+ flare events registered, the STIX detectors are in a good shape even though they tend to degrade overtime.
In this presentation, I will report on the detector status, calibration monitoring with a specific attention on the detector depolarization phases when the scientific analysis requires some precautions.

26. STIX data calibration: update and future work

Talk

In this talk we will describe the recent development of the Energy LookUp Table (ELUT) correction based on new daily calibration fits files. We will quantify the improvements obtained with this correction and show the implementation within the STIX ground software. Finally, we will provide an update on the data calibration for imaging and spectroscopy, and we will discuss the next steps.
