  1. ACS/WFC Geometric Distortion and CTE V. Kozhurina-Platais & ACS team

  2. ACS/WFC geometric distortion is changing linearly with time Anderson J., ISR-ACS/WFC , August 2006 a) Standard astrometric reference field (47Tuc) ~ 53,000 stars b) User friendly software - XYM2MAT Our plan was to: a) Check the time-dependency on FLT images; b) Implement the time dependency in MultiDrizzle c) Verify the implementation

  3. The observations of 47Tuc • F606W filter • 2002-2006 (PIP-9018-10771) • different orientations • different postargs • different exposures: 22 - 1200s • The reductions: • effective PSF fitting on FLT - X,Y mag; • standard frame: 2002 March, 690s, F606W,=-163

  9. Schematic illustration of the WFC1 and WFC2 plane: • Red arrows show the readout direction • - Green color shows the PSF profile affected by CTE

  10. Conclusions  The CTE-induced centroid shift depends on: magnitude of a star position on a CCD chip sky background • The amplitude of CTE-induced centroid shift is ~ 0.1 pix • CTE effect leads to a discontinuity in the reference frame • Accounting for CTE effect is critical to reach a 1 mas accuracy requirement for JWST standard astrometric field
