[Figure 2]

Figure 2: Crosscut of background fluxes from a central "Pass 1" swath through an SWP image. Stellar fluxes are off-scale in this diagram. The triangular area describes the local raw background fluxes in the Interorder-Overlap Region where order crowding is severe; the halation region is shown to the right. Small crosses denote the raw fluxes corrected for overlap by the PSF model. The solid line is the Pass 1 solution, a Chebyshev, degree-7 polynomial.
