The Final Cos-B Database: In-Flight Calibration of Instrumental Parameters
Abstract
A method for the determination of temporal variation of sensitivity is designed to find a set of parameters which lead to maximum consistency between the intensities derived from different observation periods. This method is briefly described and the resulting sensitivity and background variations presented.
