WebSpec Home Page

Okay, I have read this page but I still need HELP!

WebSpec is a web interface for the X-ray spectral fitting package, XSPEC. It simulates spectral data for a variety of X-ray missions/instruments. WebSpec can not be used to analyze real data. This page is for the simple interface. More experienced XSPEC users, may want to use an advanced interface which allows up to 9 components. Latest news :
