Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog - SoftwareThe Swift GRB products available here are produced using the FTOOL-like software tool swifthlprod. This tool performs the initial data reduction, using batgrbproduct, xrtpipeline, and a combination of uvotimage, uvotskycorr, uvotexpmap and uvotimsum. It then calls the high level products routines: xrtgrblc, uvotgrblc and batgrbexprod. XRT spectra are produced using xrtgrblcspec, which is run manually by a staff scientist. The software tool batgrbexprod, similar to swifthlprod, is an FTOOL-like program that performs additional BAT data analysis using the data produced by batgrbproduct.
For convenience, we provide two gzip'd tar files containing these two software tasks. You must have a current installation of
HEASoft in order to install and run these tasks.
