For the flat field we use three wavelengths, 350nm, 600nm and 900nm. For each wavelength we make two images, high level (45000 ADU) and low level (1000 ADU).

In this section we expose the hot pixel, the dark pixel, the trap and the very large trap we found and how.
A hot pixel provides a signal of > 60 e- / pixel / hour. To have these point we use a median dark image.
Result: Two hot pixels.
On our images this point is to the coordinates:

Histogram around the hot pixel |

X= 0189; Y= 2843 |

Table 5: Position and images of the hot pixels. The values in the table are in ADU. Conversion factor: 1.1 e-/ADU.
A dark pixel is one with 50% or less than the average output for uniform intensity light level, measured with a flat field level around 500 photo-electrons.
Result: No dark pixel detected.
A trap is defined as a pixel that captures more than 10 electrons, measured with a flat field level around 500 photo-electrons.
Result: No trap detected.
A very large trap is defined as a pixel that captures more than 10 000 electrons, measured with a flat field level around 90% of full well capability.
Result: One very large trap.
On our images this point is to the coordinates:

A bad column is 10 or more contiguous hot or dark pixels in a single column or a very bright pixel or a very large trap.
