All Tables
- Table 1:
Summary of all the observations used. IMF gives the
instrument, mode and filter for PN-MOS1-MOS2 as [f = full-frame,
e = full-frame-extended, t = thin, m=medium, k = thick and NA - not
applicable]. Exp. is the cleaned exposure time, and f(Ex) the fraction
of exposure removed after screening (where possible PN or
alternatively MOS1).
- Table 2:
Summary of the cleaned and filtered observations used in
the production of the EPIC background files, separated into the
different combinations of instrument, instrument mode and filter
used. LIVETIME is the livetime keyword value for the central CCD i.e.
corrected for periods of high-background and dead-time. For the PN
full-frame mode with the medium or thin filter, the files have been
split between the two hemispheres based on the galactic centre and
galactic anti-centre individual event pointings.
- Table 3:
Out-FOV and in-FOV count rates for the refilled
background event files between 2.5 keV and 6.0 keV. The pattern code
gives the patterns used, and can be
either equal to 0,
12 (MOS) or
4 (PN). For the
mode/filter combination a code is used, and for some PN files the
location dependent of the file is indicated where appropriate [f -
full-frame mode, e - full-frame-extended mode, t - thin filter, m -
medium filter, k - thick, AC - galactic anti-centre hemisphere, GC -
galactic hemisphere].
- Table 4:
Results of spectral fitting to the two subsections of the
MOS thin filter, full-frame mode background files, fitted using a
wabs
power-law model (see text).
