mos-spectra (esas-0.10.5) [xmmsas_20190531_1155-18.0.0]


Description

mos-spectra processes the cleaned event file output from mos-filter to produce intermediate files for the creation of model particle background spectra and images by the task mos_back.

Warning and requirements: mos-spectra is part of the esas package integrated into SAS, but it is limited to work within the esas data reduction scheme. This is specially true wrt the structure and names of the input files. In particular, mos-spectra assumes that other tasks from the package, mos-filter for filtering and cheese in mode=2 for point source exclusion (if desired) have been successfully run for the exposures to be used.
