Output Files

For the different values of comp, the output files are:

• A QDP plot file showing the selected region of hardness/count rate distributions for the various ccds. E.g. mos1S001-augindiv.qdp
• A QDP plot file showing the normalized model background spectrum. E.g. mos1S001-bkgspec.qdp
• A QDP plot file showing the accumulating background spectrum. Chip 1 at the bottom increasing upwards. E.g. mos1S001-bkgaccum.qdp
• A QDP plot file showing the observed spectrum and the model background spectrum. E.g. mos1S001-augspec.qdp
• A QDP plot file showing the the fit for the Al-Si bridge. E.g. mos1S001-bridgefit.qdp
• The model particle background image for the given exposure, selected energy band (elow and ehigh), and the selected region. The image is in detector coordinates. E.g. mos1S001-bkgimdet-elow-ehigh.fits.
• The model particle background spectrum for the prefix exposure and the selected region. E.g. mos1S001-bkg.pi
