1 Net exposures for the observations from revolutions 21/22 were derived from a comparison of the spectrum of N 157 B with that obtained from the ROSAT PSPC due to missing timing information in the early data (Haberl et al. 2001). 2 Net counts as used for the spectral analysis in the following energy bands: 0.2-9.0 keV for the EPIC instruments (except for EPIC-pn during revolutions 21/22 when we adopted 0.3-9.0 keV due to the higher low-energy threshold used at the beginning of the performance verification phase); 0.3-2.0 keV for RGS.
