Without an optical afterglow, a galaxy within the 2 arc second error region of a GRB x-ray afterglow is identified as a host galaxy; however confusion can rise due to the facts that 1. the edge of a galaxy is diffused, 2. multiple sources could exist within 2 arc second error region, 3.the distance between the galaxy and the x-ray afterglow is measured by projection, and 4. lensing causes increase of brightness and position shifts. ...

XMM-Newton Science Analysis System . ... The RGS is addressed by the task rgsrmfgen . The size of the o/p RMF is dependent on the spectrum binsize and the number of bins in the energy grid, and can be very large. Heavy consumption of disk space is expected. Memory consumption will also be high as the full RMF is held in memory before being written to disk. ... The task directly uses a section of code from the arfgen task. ...
