The HEASARC and NuSTAR teams are greatly saddened by the sudden passing of Katja Pottschmidt. Most recently Katja was the lead scientist for the NuSTAR Guest Observer Facility (GOF), a role she had supported for many years. During her science career she worked on many other high energy astrophysics missions and played an integral role in advancing our knowledge of the universe. She was a wonderful colleague and friend and will be keenly missed by all who knew her.

Smooth the images
Currently, GAUSSIAN, BOXCAR and LORENTZIAN smoothings are permitted. The original image is preserved, and a new, smoothed image is written. Future calls to PLOT IMAGE will view the smoothed image (unless you CLEAR SMOOTH). Future calls to smooth, however, will smooth the original image again, and overwrite the previous smoothed image.
The output image will preserve the data type of the original image, unless you set the parameter smooth_outtype.
Syntax:
xsel > smooth <smooth_method> [smooth_outtype]
