Pipeline Product Data - Data Files

The data file names are of the form (see Table 41 in the XMM Data Files Handbook):

• PiiiiiijjkkaablllCCCCCCnmmm.zzz

  iiiiiijjkk - observation number

  aa - detector, M1 - MOS1, M2 - MOS2, PN - PN, CA - for files from the CRSCOR group, R1 - RGS1, R2 - RGS2, OM - OM.

  b - flag for scheduled (S) or unscheduled (U) observations, or X for files from the CRSCOR group (and any product that is not due to a single exposure)

  lll - exposure number

  CCCCCC - file identification for data from each detector; see Table 5.3

  n - For EPIC data, this is the exposure map band number; for RGS data, this is the spectral order number; for the OM, this is the OM window within the exposure.

  mmm - source number in hexidecimal

  zzz - file type (e.g., PDF, PNG, FTZ, HTM)

  ASC - ASCII file, use a web browser, or the ``more'' command

  ASZ - gzipped ASCII file

  FTZ - gzipped FITS format, use ds9, Ximage, Xselect, fv

  HTM - HTML file, use Firefox or other web browser

  PDF - Portable Data Format, use Acrobat Reader

  PNG - Portable Networks Graphics file, use a web browser

  TAR - TAR file
