摘要：

We describe the transmission calibration of the Astro-E XRS blocking filters. XRS was the prime instrument on board the Japanese-US ASTRO-E observatory which was lost due to a rocket failure. XRS's high spectral resolution makes us sensitive to fine structure in the X-ray absorption edges of the filters for the oxygen and aluminum edges around 0.5 and 1.5 keV. Thus, it is important that we measure these features on the ground. A spare XRS microcalorimeter is now being used for laboratory astrophysics at LLNL and it is hoped that future missions such as ASTRO-EII might carry similar detectors. We thus continue to calibrate the spare XRS optical blocking filters.
