Scientific paper

Bias and dark reference files for the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) UVIS flight detector were assembled from ground data acquired in the final thermal vacuum campaign at the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). These represent the first generation of reference files for the UVIS channel and will serve to calibrate the on-orbit data from the early phase of the fourth Servicing Mission Observatory Verification (SMOV4). In this report, we present our methodology for assembling the bias and dark reference data, tabulate the resulting reference files, and discuss their overall features. We also discuss the assignment of their data quality flags. The most up-to-date reference files are available on the STScI WFC3 Web site.
