Introduction
As announced in an earlier Nugget, RHESSI entered its fourth annealing in late June. This process is periodically necessary to minimize the radiation damage of the detectors that accumulates gradually in orbit, and a still earlier Nugget explains the process in further detail.
We are happy now that the process is complete, and that RHESSI is functioning again in a satisfactory, although (as expected) not quite as well as in 2002!
