What information is available on scattered light in CDS?
Some pre-flight information is available in Harrison et al (1995), Solar Physics, 162, 233. which gives results for measures at a wavelength of 68 Å. For a scientific application and extension of this to CDS observed wavelengths see David et al (1997), Fifth SOHO Workshop, SP-404, Page 313. Routines to calculate the amount of scattered light and an explanation of how to apply them are available. Can CDS track solar features as the Sun rotates? (Index) Yes and no! Please read software note #45 for details, but remember the “feature tracking” option cannot be relied on to give stable pointing at the 2″ level. Remember also the difference between feature tracking and rotation compensation. Where do I find further help? (Index) If you have further questions about CDS data please contact the project staff. 6) Tricks of the trade (Index) If you would like to advertise (and be given credit for) any tricks/titbits you’ve discovered about dealing with CDS data please let us know.
