... Ideally, this map contains the energy offset for each pixel (expressed in analog-to-digital units, adu). ... High-energy particles hitting the EPIC pn CCD during the offset map calculation may cause the affected pixels to get offset values which are incorrect by a few adu. ... Due to the specific method of deriving the offset map onboard, the affected areas occur often in blocks of four consecutive pixels along readout direction. ... The affected pixels usually get an offset which is too small. ...
