== Flats ==

Joanne Hughes Clark has provided a series of dome and sky flats that can be used to assess the vignetting across the ARCTIC FOV due to the NA2 baffle.  The files (a readme file and a tar file containing all the flats) can be obtained here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bp495m0lla236nz/AAA3Tm6LuDS2_gqbz9GvPz2ra?dl=0

== Speed Tests ==

With the failure of the thermoelectric cooler on Agile in July 2023, users may wish to consider the use of ARCTIC for high cadence imaging applications. In late July Russet McMillan conducted some tests of various readout modes of ARTIC. Those results can be found here: [[arctic:arcticspeed | July 2023 ARCTIC speed tests]].
