EFFECT OF OPEN/OPEN UV-FLOOD ON DARK SIGNAL This plot displays the dark signal in DN/pixel for the HR dark images taken before and after the open/open uv-flood of '22-APR-97 08:17:21', '22-APR-97 09:45:19'. The short (DPE=2) and long (DPE=30) exposures are illustrated. The time of the flood is indicated by the "dot" in each panel. The adjacent darkframe was taken about 2 hours after the completion of the flood interval. From these images alone it is difficult to assert that the open/open flood had any effect on the total dark signal -- although the DPE=2 images may sxhibit a short term effect in the read noise and spurious charge part of the dark signal.
