XMM­Newton CCF Release Note XMM­CCF­REL­0247 EPIC canned response matrices I. de la Calle October 1, 2008 1 Purpose The generated EPIC canned response matrix files (RMFs) are described and published on a dedi­ cated web page at http://xmm2.esac.esa.int/external/xmm sw cal/calib/epic files.shtml and allow the user to load them (together with source and background spectra of EPIC observations and related ancillary matrices) into spectral analysis packages like XSPEC for model fitting. ...

GTK+ / Gnome Application Development . ... Overview of a Gnome Source Tree . ... Almost all Gnome applications use the same build system based on the GNU tools automake , autoconf , and libtool . ... Beginning with this chapter and continuing throughout Part 2 of the book, a sample application called GnomeHello will be used to demonstrate Gnome features. ... Together, these tools are used to create a portable shell script called configure ; configure is distributed to users with your software package. ...

... This paper describes the main algorithms used by the Einstein Level One processing to create the exposure masks and the background maps for Einstein IPC images, and how these algorithms were recreated in the IRAF environment. Our goal was to recreate the algorithms used by the Level One Processing to create exposure masks and background maps for Einstein Image Proportional Counter (IPC) data (cf. sections 2.5 and 2.7 of Harnden et al. ...
