The calibration data and information in these documents are used for generation of the calibration tables that are used and applied for data analysis. Please be aware that the IMA data is complicated and there is no unique calibration procedure. Thus, the user is strongly advised to contact the ASPERA-3 IMA team (Rickard Lundin: rickard@irf.se, Stas Barabash: stas@irf.se, Andrei Fedorov: Andrei.Fedorov@cesr.fr) for guidance in analyzing IMA data. This report is a joint effort with documents (1) and (2) provided by CESR and documents (3) and (4) provided by IRF, and is intended to be viewed using a PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat."
