... This is generally not a problem for point sources but for regions of extended emission it can cause an extracted spectrum to be a mix of flux from different areas of an object. It may be possible to disentangle the true sky emission by simultaneously fitting different spectral files. In this case an ARF giving the expected contribution (effective area) of flux received in one area from a different area is needed. ...
