Detailed description of the data product

Gain model is a JSON file containing a dictionary with one gain value in e-/ADU per quadrant.

The calibration pipeline consists in measuring the ratio of the mean signal versus square of the standard deviation fluxes differences of two flat field pair.

The gain can also be derived from the photon transfer curves (PTC). This second method is used as a validation of the calibration.

This flat field has been corrected from bias. As we are at low fluxes, it is not necessary to correct from non-linearity and brighter-fatter.

See https://euclid.roe.ac.uk/dmsf/files/17670/view for more detail.
