Input Files

1. Source list which derives from task srcmatch. The actual source list must be a binary table in a FITS file, but the file and table can have any names consistent with FITS conventions. The table must contain the following columns:
   • SRC_NUM
   • RA
   • DEC
   • RA_CORR
   • DEC_CORR
   • PN_CTS
   • M1_CTS
   • M2_CTS
   • PN_ONTIME
   • M1_ONTIME
   • M2_ONTIME
   • PN_DET_ML
   • PN_MASKFRAC
   • M1_DET_ML
   • M1_MASKFRAC
   • M2_DET_ML
   • M2_MASKFRAC
   • (optional) EP_1_ML_ID
   • (if setflags is set) SPECTRA
   • (if setflags is set) TSERIES

2. A single event list from each EPIC instrument. These are again FITS datasets and each must contain an EVENTS binary table extension which has both TSTART and TSTOP keywords.
