      Description

      rhl pointed out the flux calibration is catastrophically bad in GE visits. I am filing this ticket as per Mortani-san's request.

            I confirm the flux calibration is indeed bad. I picked visit=111775 from the GE visits and the flux calibration vector looks awful. This seems to come from bad pfsMerged in spectrograph=2. Robert pointed out that n2 has inconsistent fluxes between real data and targetType. I confirm that it is only n2 and the other arms+spectrographs are OK. This seems to be a detectorMap problem.

            Although a complete check is not yet, here is an example of flux calibrated spectrum (a FLUXSTD) before and after the fix. I looks the calibration is significantly improved.

            Masayuki Tanaka Are we going to keep investigating the flux loss issue (of about 20-30%) in this ticket? or would PIPE2D-1580 be a better place?

            This ticket is about the bad fluxCal due to off-by-one problem in the detectorMap. So, we can safely close this ticket. For the 20-40% flux loss issue, I will file a separate ticket. There is also the nearly-no-flux problem but we can track that work on PIPE2D-1580.
