== eSASS Q&A / weekly eSASS developers Zoom meeting ==

'''Start of meeting: 2020-05-05 13:30 (1:30pm)''' - Zoom link: https://zoom.us/j/7909307159?pwd=ZEdGeTJQUzdsRGpkd2Q5aUZXQmZZdz09

The weekly eSASS developers meeting on the first Tuesday of each month is announced to the full eROcat list to facilitate interaction between eSASS users and developers (eSASS Q&A). Question, bug reports, and suggestions for improvements are welcome.

'''Agenda:'''

 * eSASS Q&A

   * In the previous eSASS Q&A meeting Jeremy Sanders presented the eROSITA Sky Explorer [[https://erose.mpe.mpg.de/eROSE/|eROSE]]. A video of his presentation is available [[eSASSdevel_200407|here]]. Those who tried out eROSE in the last month are welcome to provide feedback.

   * Other eSASS questions, bug reports, suggestions, etc. 
     * CalPV data should have source catalogs!
     * Backdating current boresight caldb files to also apply to CalPC data. 
     * evtool, srctool TSTART and TSTOP header keywords (other?) should match GTI
   
   * from last (ad-hoc) background meeting (24-Apr): missing S/W package like "esas" and "eimageget"/"eimagecombine" in XMMSAS, would be very helpful and could be a joint eRO_DE effort

 * Weekly eSASS developers team meeting

   * Preprocessor / NRTA
   * Data analysis pipeline
     * c946 processing - where are we?
       * evprep/evatt new time correction method / testing
         * uncorrected event lists: evatt warning?
           * evatt in new users release will not work with c945 data! evatt warning and documentation!
       * new vignetting model
         * new 2dpsf and avignet2 caldb files / srctool-1.52 (expmap needs to be rebuilt)
         * avignet/avignet2 file names are in expmap/srctool SASSHIST keyword
    * New eSASSusers release
    * New TM5/TM7 flickering pixels/corrupted events?
         * put bad pixel TSTART, TSTOP values into badpix caldb files
         * check corrupted event/frame algorithm in evprep  
    * Pipeline reruns (fields with large exposure gradient, test scan fields)
    * BARYCORR (Joern's code)
    * DATool
    * Pipeline data quality checking (GTI fraction, corrupted events, etc.) 
 * AOB
