摘要
The Advanced camera for Surveys (ACS), installed in the Hubble Space telescope in March 2002, has significantly extended HST's deep, survey imaging capabilities. ACS comprises three cameras: the Wide Field Camera (WFC) is designed for deep, near-IR survey imaging programs; the High Resolution Camera (HRC) is a high angular resolution imager/coronagraph, which fully samples the HST point spread function in the visible; and the Solar Blind Camera (SBC) is a far-UV imager. ACS has met, or exceeded all of its key performance specifications. In this paper we briefly review the in-flight performance of the instrument's CCD detectors. We present an overview of the performance of the ACS CCD detectors, based on the first year of flight science operations.
