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.
Convolution Model Components
Convolution components apply a convolution operator to an input model calculated from another model. They differ from multiplicative components, which only apply a bin-wise multiplicative factor, by allowing transformations of the model across energy bins.
