standard cross sections
QC1PARAM QC1 parameters written into QC1 table:
QC.MEDIANMASTER, qc_med median dark level
QCRON (LOCAL), qc_ron from QC script
QC.NUM.HOTPIXELS, qc_num_hotpix number of hot pixel
ALGORITHM Description of algorithms:
For each pixel the stddev is calulated from plane 11-15 from the raw input cube. The median of all stdev is called qc_ron.
CERTIF Reasons for rejection:
COMMENTS The dark current and the ron is increasing with exposure time.
The persistence vanished in dark frames from 2017-05-10 on
