JEG is very interested (conversation January 12, 2021) in how does this amount of scattered flux depend as a function of total flux on the detector.</p> PIPE2D-695

The line is the linear fit to the points with flux above 0.5x10**9. I excluded low flux points as they skew the result. The discrepancy between different arc lamps is because they use different exposure times and we do not control that absouletly perfectly. The panels on the right show the result if we don't use darks in reduction, where the ``extra flux'' is then dominated by exposure time.<br/> In the bottom left we can see that dependence of median flux in the empty region is not strongly dependent on exposure time if we detrend with darks (although Neon is behaving somewhat oddly at exposure times of several hundred seconds.)</p> <p>As such, I conclude that darks are of sufficient quality that the main effect seen in the top left panel is due to scattered light, and I report the value shown in gray dotted lines.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> Relates PIPE2D-783 Development Rank 0|02qpq3:r1i Reviewers hassan Sprint 2DDRP-2021 A Story Points 2.0
