NOTE1 Not always the PDS data are available. This directory structure and the content reflects the latest processing pipeline. Older processing do not includes the raw_event_files directory and the file naming convention is different.
NOTE2 The spectra with the suffix " _r " have been grouped with grppha.
NOTE3 The lightcurves with the suffix " _1, _2, _3 " correspond to data in different energy bands.
