Some key performance parameters of the eROSITA MAs as calibrated on ground: the on-axis angular resolution (HEW [arcsec]) is corrected for the detector resolution.

TM1 TM2 TM3 TM4 TM5 TM6 TM7
HEW Al-Kα at 1.49 keV 16.0 ± 0.2 15.5 ± 0.2 16.5 ± 0.2 15.9 ± 0.2 15.5 ± 0.2 15.6 ± 0.2 17.0 ± 0.2
FWHM Al-Kα at 1.49 keV ~9.3 ~7.0 ~7.9 ~7.6 ~8.5 ~7.9 ~9.2
HEW Cu-Kα at 8.04 keV 14.5 ± 0.2 15.1 ± 0.2 15.6 ± 0.2 16.3 ± 0.2 15.1 ± 0.2 16.2 ± 0.2 14.7 ± 0.2
FWHM Cu-Kα at 8.04 keV ~7.9 ~7.5 ~6.5 ~7.6 ~6.6 ~7.8 ~5.7
Eff. Area at Al-Kα at 1.49 keV 391 ± 22 393 ± 16 388 ± 19 369 ± 25 378 ± 19 392 ± 25 392 ± 16
Eff. Area at Cu-Kα at 8.04 keV 24.9 ± 1.1 25.1 ± 1.2 24.1 ± 0.6 23.8 ± 0.9 25.1 ± 1.1 25.0 ± 0.9 24.8 ± 0.8

Notes. The PSF has been measured also at C-K but is omitted here because it is almost identical to Al-K. The FWHM [arcsec] is an approximate value of the mirror–detector combination. The on-axis effective areas [cm2 ] were measured using the standard setup. Errors are 1σ for PSF and3σ for effective areas.
