Table 5: Position and images of the hot pixels.

Dark pixel

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: 0 dark pixels detected.

Trap

A trap is defined as a pixel that captures more than 10 electrons, measured with a flat field level around 500 photo-electrons.


Result: Not available

Very large trap

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: Not available.


Bad column

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.


Result: 6 bad columns.

Be careful, in the ESO test report we didn't include the very large trap in the total bad column because for this ccd we couldn't measure this parameter.
