A new in-flight calibration of the Solar Orbiter's STIX instrument used 91 solar flares to measure X-ray transmission efficiency. The study, published in Solar Physics, found photon fluxes are about 13% higher than previous measurements. The method uses the instrument's own Coarse Flare Locator as a reference, improving data consistency across detectors.
