Table 3: Summary of the results of spectral fits with two models: cut-off power law and thermal bremsstrahlung, both modified by photoelectric absorption. The fluxes are computed directly from the source counts and are thus independent of the adopted absorption; for comparison the flux of the Crab in the 20-50 keV energy band is $10^{-8}~{\rm erg~s^{-1}~cm^{-2}}$. The errors are at a 90% confidence level for one parameter of interest ( $\chi ^2_{{\rm min}}+2.7$).
