Scientific paper

We briefly describe the in orbit measurements of the mirror vignetting, using
observations of SNR G21.5-09. The instrument features which complicate these
measurements are briefly described, and we show the spatial and energy
dependences, outlining assumptions made in deriving the eventual agreement
between theory and measurement.
