Analysis of CCD dark current degradation in orbit

This paper presents the CNES analysis of CCD dark current degradation in orbit. For the first time, data coming from several detectors in orbit have been collected and congregated to extract general trends about in-flight detector behaviours. The in-orbit degradation is therefore compared to the on-ground prediction for each detector. This work has been done in collaboration with the CNES detection subsystem office, the CNES image quality office and the CNES components & environment effects office.
