FOS Instrument Science Report 113

"Reference Guide and Complete History of FOS Calibration Reference Files
and Tables"
by Cynthia J. Taylor and Charles D. Keyes

Abstract excerpted from the report:

Complete tabulations of recommeded FOS reference files (except flat
field, inverse sensitivity, and dead diodes) and reference tables AS
OF 12 AUGUST 1994 are specified in convenient matrix format.  Lists of
recommended flat fields are covered in CAL/FOS-090 (C.D. Keyes and C.J. 
Taylor, April, 1993), inverse sensitivity is in CAL/FOS-093 (C.J. Taylor
and C.D Keyes, June, 1993), and dead diodes is in CAL/FOS-112 (C.J. Taylor,
August, 1994) and current lists of all three are found on STEIS in the
/instrument_news/fos directory.  ASCII and Postscript versions of the lists
of recommended FOS reference files and table covered in this report are
posted on STEIS in the /instrument_news/fos directory.

A complete history of all reference files and tables delivered to Calibration
Data Base System (CDBS) including superceded, redundant, and erroneous
deliveries is also provided.  Current recommendation lists and histories are
to be maintained and made available to the FOS calibration team, analysis
group, and the archive group.  The history of all reference files and
tables is not planned to be posted on STEIS.  This report is aimed at internal
users rather than the general observing community.
