CALDB WARNING: sis/cpf/93dec20/s1c2g*p40e1*.* files
CALDB WARNING - Problem with a few ASCA SIS files in the OGIP caldb
*******************************************************************
The following matrices contain an erroneous 'spike' at 11 keV which
can severely effect data analysis.
/caldb/data/asca/sis/cpf/93dec20/s1c2g*p40e1*.*
where '*' represents a wild-card.
NOTES
- The spike is at an energy not usually used in data analysis
- NO other files are thought to be effected.
- The ASCA GOF at NASA/GSFC is currently deciding what should
be done regarding these files.
Geoff Crewe (MIT) reports:
