... It can perform any or all of the following variability tests on the light curve to determine whether the source is variable, however if insufficient good bins remain, no variability tests are carried out. a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test carried out either on: the cumulative probability functions of the observed count distribution and the observed background distribution; or the cumulative probability function of the observed net count distribution and the cumulative time distribution. ...
