Implementation of new patient care services has required long-term, systematic, and well coordinated actions at the local and national levels. Future services will seek to promote the quality use of medications and to ensure that rising costs do not limit uniform access to drugs by all Finnish residents.
A number of X-ray instruments have been active in observing the solar coronal X-ray radiation this decade. We have compared XSM observations with simultaneous GOES and RHESSI observations. We present flux calibrations for all instruments and compare XSM and GOES total emission measures (TEM) and temperatures (T).The model-independent flux comparison with XSM and GOES data in the 1 -8 Å band shows that the fluxes agree with a ratio of 0.94 ± 0.09 for the data up to April 2005. The Mewe model-dependent Ts and TEMs differ as XSM observes 1.47 ± 0.03 times higher Ts than GOES and 1.23 ± 0.08 times higher TEMs and 0.92 ± 0.05 times lower fluxes. The comparison with RHESSI data in the 6 -8 keV band shows that the average XSM/RHESSI flux ratio is 2.63 ± 0.23. The discrepancies revealed in this study are similar to discrepancies observed in a number of other spaceborne cross-calibration studies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
