The problem in 2012 seem to be related to the anomalous period in 2012 when the BKG was very high with no clear reason and all data were labelled bad in the GBU. We revised the GBU thresholds down. There may be other periods in 2011 when this happens. Once we reprocess the 2011 data, we can plot the BKG values and evaluate.
See issue #96
Some level 1 image in the high background period in 2012 are strange. See example below, which made me worry something had failed in the level 1 processing. It seemed the beams were not properly combined or the flat was off.
The raw data show that the occulter was not centered with the field mask, i.e. the annular region was wider on one side and narrower on the other.
The pipeline does not find the center of the field mask well but this can only explain the outer crescent moon artifact.
The solar disk seems to be well covered by the occulter, there is no bad spillage in the raw images, and the pipeline finds the center of the occulter. It is not clear to me why the image looks so bad. It may be helpful to have intermediate products for this day 20120517 and for day 20120531 when the background decreased with no apparent reason.
One final bit of information. I looked at two images on 2012 May 31: one with high background and one with low background. They are about 30m apart. They have the same flat applied. There is no data gap in between. They are plotted using the same min and max of 0 and 30. The difference is stunning.
The only things that is slightly different is the stray light correction but this is usually a small correction. The raw data show the same stunning difference, so the stray light correction is not the issue. The voltage and temperature in the two raw headers are identical and they should not be. I remembered there was a time when these values were not updated.

There was a bug in the rest wavelength calculation for #136 (I created a mask from velocity thresholds before converting velocity to km/s) that requires recomputing all the dynamics files (quick inverts were OK). That is currently underway.
Dynamics files have been recomputed.
The community was provided with quick invert files in 2011 and 2012. There are publications reporting results from these old quick invert files (e.g. Ula's 2013 paper on lagomorph/flux rope in July 27, 2011 CoMP). 2012 was reprocessed by Mike and in some cases the new pipeline did not produce level 2 data (it likely failed GBU). For some of those days, old quick inverts do exist on the web and have been used by the community. How do we deal with these old quick inverts?
