Fringe Correction Tables

Here you will find what are the detector-filter combinations that requires a Processed Fringe Frame for the data reduction. Below are one table for GMOS-N and one table for GMOS-S. Each row of these tables corresponds to one of the detectors used in the instrument during its life-time. The five columns in the right contains the broadband filters used in imaging mode. The intersection of the detector rows with the filter columns contains cell with the following information:

  • Yes: Requires a Processed Fringe Frame for data reduction;
  • No: Does not require a Processed Fringe Frame for data reduction;
  • : Does not have data with these filters.
