Processing Data Sets Based on Time History ========================================== Description: Use the time history of an instrument's observing program and calibration state as an additional factor in reprocessing data. ... NICMOS data are subject to persistence, in which detector pixels that collect a large number of counts in one exposure continue to 'glow' with a count rate that decays gradually with time, producing afterimages in subsequent images. ...
