XSM is a calibration subinstrument of D-CIXS onboard the SMART-1 technology mission to the Moon. SMART-1 was launched in September 2003 from Kourou, French Guyana, and the instruments onboard are now scientifically operational at the time of writing. XSM provides a 52 degree field of view in the energy range of 1-20keV. We have cross calibrated XSM with GOES, and the fidelity of XSM data seems highly likely.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
