[docs] class SXTMap(GenericMap): """Yohkoh SXT Image Map The Yohkoh Soft X-ray Telescope (SXT) observed the full solar disk (42 x 42 arcminutes) in the 0.25 - 4.0 keV range. It consisted of a glancing incidence mirror and a CCD sensor and used thin metallic filters to acquire images in restricted portions of its energy range. SXT could resolve features down to 2.5 arcseconds. Information about the temperature and density of the plasma emitting the observed x-rays was obtained by comparing images acquired with the different filters. Images could be obtained every 2 to 8 seconds. Smaller images with a single filter could be obtained as frequently as once every 0.5 seconds. Yohkoh was launched on 30 August 1991 and ceased operations on 14 December 2001. Notes ----- Observer location: We use the ITRS coordinates provided in the FITS header (``LAT``, ``LONG``, ``RADIUS``) for the spacecraft location even when coordinates in the heliographic Stonyhurst frame are provided (``HGS_LON``, ``HGS_LAT``, ``DSUN_OBS``). The two locations differ substantially, and the ITRS coordinates are more accurate than the HGS information. Using this information for the observer coordinate was implemented in ``sunpy`` 4.0.6 to work with the FITS files that were re-processed in 2016.
