protonscale

Abstract:

This task extracts the BACKSCAL keyword and average soft proton intensity from the detector map for a specified region. These values are necessary in the spectral fitting process of multiple regions which are linked. This task was originally a subtask of the SAS esas task named proton_scale prior to SAS-21 and retains all of its functionality.
