1 Overview 17 Jan 2003 - TRACE

The TRACE images have been processed using trace prep by Jonathan Cirtain.

The data are corrected for both solar rotation and are in DN/sec/pix . The values are floats.

All of the TRACE images are aligned with one another.

TRACE observed in sequence with the three coronal filters. The 284 Å filter is very noisy.

These are the timings (UT):

2 CDS - diagnostic raster

The CDS data have been cleaned (one by one) for cosmic rays, rotated and calibrated.

The first and last row of pixles have been cut out.

the CDS images have been translated to match the TRACE images by:

trans=[-25, +15]

*No* correction for a NIS 1 – NIS 2 misalignement has been applied.
