proton (proton-0.19.2) [xmmsas_20230412_1735-21.0.0]


Description

proton uses the spectral fitting results from Xspec and model soft proton detector maps to create model soft proton contamination maps for a given observation.

Warning and requirements: proton was part of the package esas, integrated into SAS, but (still) limited to work within esas' data reduction scheme. This is specially true wrt input files structure and names. In particular, proton assumes that another task from the package, mosspectra / pnspectra, and mosback / pnback, have been successfully run for the mos / pn exposures to be used.
