Figure 13
Uncorrected background-subtracted intensities using 14 analyser crystals. Vertical intensity spikes are evident, corresponding to fluctuations in the HERFD-XES slices at incident energies Einc = 7240, 7480 and 7600 eV. These are best attributed to electronic noise spikes in the Medipix detectors and significantly decrease the signal-to-noise ratio of the satellite. To correct for this, affected slices are replaced by the average of the surrounding data points. The improvements can be seen in Fig. 14.
