39 Ground Based Telescope Cross Calibration of Spectr XG (erosita and ART XC) In the spirit of simplifying in orbit cross calibration A plan is being setup for a ground based cross calibration of the erosita and ART XC spare mirror and spare detector units at PANTER. This will be done to ensure that the calibration of overlapping 6 10 kev spectral region is well understood. In PANTER it will be possible to automatically switch between mirrors and detectors in the beam. This is taking the IACHEC philosophy to the pre launch phase of a new mission
