RHESSI Albedo Imaging Test

An IDL routine was written that allows a map to be created, from the map a calibrated eventlist file is made, and from the calibrated eventlist file, an image is made. For each image, the Full Width Half Max was calculated in the X and Y directions. This was compared to the FWHM of the original map.

For the case below, the FWHM of a circular Gaussian is plotted versus the FWHM in the X and Y direction for clean images.

The plot shows the FWHM of the original circular Gaussian versus the FWHM in the X direction of the image (Red) and the Y direction (Green).
