Scientific paper

The X-Ray Telescope and the Extreme-Ultra Violet Imaging Spectrometer on Hinode are designed to measure the emission of excited ions formed at temperatures ranging from 104-108 K. The temperature overlap of these two telescope is from 0.7 to 20 MK, and an on-orbit calibration of the sensitivity of the two instruments to solar features will provide a basis for future observational comparisons. Using calibrated samples of data from each instrument, and relying to a great extent on the CHIANTI spectral code, we have derived an estimate of the inter-calibration of the two telescope for a variety of different solar features and conditions. This is a major step in enhancing our ability to use the instruments together for providing quantitative diagnostics of the solar plasma.
