Description
Spectral analysis of X-ray sources detected by ART-XC hinges crucially on the accuracy of the redistribution matrix file (RMF), which relates the probability of a photon with a given energy E being observed with a particular energy E’ in ART-XC’s CdTe detectors. This work will discuss efforts by the MSFC team to determine the RMF of ART-XC’s detectors using a combination of laboratory data and ART-XC Performance Verification observations of bright X-ray sources obtained during SRG's journey to L2.
