RHESSI Website Migration

The RHESSI Website Migration continued this week. Typo3 was upgraded to version 4.4.7. This was done primarily to address bugs in the older version of the installation. The html Rich Text Editor had issues with some text formatting. Once the upgrade was done I was able to fix problems with the indentation, I am currently working on issues with the font color and size. This includes changing parameters for Front End display. I am trying to find to correct parameters to adjust.

RHESSI Pixon Albedo Imaging Test

The following pixon images were made for a circular Gaussian source with an extended cosine cubed background.

• An image with the Gaussian and cosine cubed sources having equal flux
• An image with the Gaussian twice the flux of the cosine cubed flux
• An image with the cosine cubed source twice the flux of the Gaussian source

I am currently making flux profiles for these images to check against the original maps. The programs for creating maps, turning them into eventlist files, and creating images, have been integrated. Given any map, an image can be immediately made.

RHESSI Messenger Data Analysis

I've started recompiling old results from MESSENGER data. I've also reanalyzed the flares from 1June2007 with the updated OSPEX components.

The original raw messenger data, the older results, and new results for the two flares on 1June2007 are located here:

• Original MESSENGER data, with old results, and new results

Goals

• Continue work on the RHESSI Website, especially the formatting of text
• Make flux profiles for the Pixon albedo imaging test
• Reanalyze the old MESSENGER flare data with current version of OSPEX vth abundance component.
