Analytical functions fitted to the deabsorbed spectra.

Description Abbreviation Formula dNint/dE # of parameters

Power law PL PL1 2
Broken power law BPL PL1 × CPL12 4
with transition region
Broken power law with transition region SEBPL PL1 × CPL12 × Pile 6
and super-exponential pile up
Double broken power law DBPL PL1 × CPL12 × CPL23 6
with transition region
Double broken power law SEDBPL PL1 × CPL12 × CPL23 × Pile 8
with super-exponential pile up

Notes. The functions are a power law, a curved power law and a super exponential pile up defined as , respectively, where all energies are normalized to 1 TeV. The smoothness parameters fi are held constant and the break energies are forced to be positive. Only positive pile up, i.e. Epile > 0, is tested.
