Cases have been found whereby new output file attributes need to be calculated on the basis of input file attributes, and no doubt, these cases will continue to crop up. ... Problems can occur when one of the input files contains GTI extensions (not STDGTI) and the other one doesn't. Everything seems ok but evselect can't handle this case and will calculate the wrong exposure time for files extracted from the merged event file. ...

... arXiv.org . astro-ph . ... We fit the near-infrared to radio spectral energy distributions of 30 luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies with pure starburst models or models that include both starburst and AGN components to determine important physical parameters for this population of objects. In particular we constrain the optical depth towards the luminosity source, the star formation rate, the star formation efficiency and the AGN fraction. ...
