Scientific paper

The Swift X-ray Telescope focal plane camera is a front-illuminated MOS CCD, providing a spectral response kernel of 145 eV FWHM at 5.9keV. We describe the status of the CCD X-ray spectral response matrices, which are made using a Monte-Carlo simulation technique based on physical models of the CCD response. We emphasize how the model has been refined following in-flight experiences with celestial and on-board calibration sources.
