ChangeLog for rgsspectrum =============================== Version 2.8.1 - 2014-09-10 (AI) ------------ + Bug using rebin parameter in lambda space fixed. SOC-SPR-6923 closed Version 2.8 - 2012-12-17 (AI) ------------ + reproject method used to calculate AREASCAL and BACKSCAL in lambda space has been removed. + Given the new functionality in rgsfilter and rgsregion that generates the exposure maps and regions in lamdda space, rgsspectrum can calculate the AREASCAL and BACKSCALE without any reprojection. These modification close SOC-SPR-6688. + documentation updated. Version 2.7.5 - 2011-02-16 (AI) ------------ + Background corrected RGS spectra cannot be read int XSPEC 12. BACKSCAL keyword added for background subtracted spectrum (S0C-SPR-6647) Version 2.7.4 - 2010-04-01 (AI) ----------- + Default value of parameter "spectrumbinning" changed to "lambda". Version 2.7.3 - 2010-04-01 (AI) ----------- + Back to version 2.7.1. The modification introduced in version 2.7.2. has to be implemented together with a modification in rgsrfmgen. The SOC-SPR-6577 means: Accumulate counts in lambda grid instead of mlambda, which implies changes in both packages. Nevertheless, we have wrote explicitely in the spectrum header that the units in the channel axis are: -Angstrom*order Version 2.7.2 - 2010-03-26 (AI) ----------- + SOC-SPR-6577 fixed. Version 2.7.1 - 2009-09-01 (AI) ----------- + Misc. fixes to make gcc-4.3 happy. Version 2.7 - 2009-03-31 (AI) ----------- + The algorithm to calculate BACKSCAL and AREASCAL in lambdabinning has been modified. Now BACKSCAL and AREASCAL reflect the bin width difference between beta and lambda binning. Version 2.6.3 - 2008-06-17 (AI) ----------- + Documentation fixed and updated. Version 2.6.2 - 2008-06-04 (AI) ----------- + Mlambda channel index, needed to accumulate counts, is now checked. Only positive values are allowed. Version 2.6.1 - 2008-05-23 (AI) ----------- + New parameter "spectrumbinning". This parameter allows to calculate the spectrum in lambda binning or beta binning. + "loadEvent" method has been modified to take into account the event filtering in lambda space. + "out" method has been modified to set up the keywords depedending if the output spectrum will be in lambda or beta space. + New method (reproject). Calculates the areascale, backscale, quality and errors in the corresponding lambda grid. + New method (setMLambdaChannel). + New error message "LambdaSpectrum" thrown when M_LAMBDA column does not exist in the event file and the lambda spectrum has been chosen. Version 2.6 - 2003-04-22 (CG) ----------- + C++ compliance increased (required by gcc3.2) + DEPEND changed (dal instead of dali) Version 2.5 - 2002-08-21 (UL) ----------- + now DEPENDs on package sas Version 2.4 - 2002-07-08 (JDR) ----------- - requires cal-3.142 - BACKSCAL in HTR mode is now computed using the model background distribution from the CCF Version 2.3 - 2002-05-29 (JDR) ----------- - propagates EXPIDSTR from input to output, if present Version 2.2 - 2002-05-09 (JDR) ----------- - requires param-2.0 Version 2.1 - 2002-05-07 (JDR) ----------- - total overhaul of the code: simpler formulation of the spectrum statistics - added optional FRAC_EXP column, and new parameters relating to it - implemented a crude background correction for HTR mode Version 1.6 - 2002-03-08 (JDR) ----------- - modified AREASCAL calculation, pending further refinement Version 1.5 - 2002-02-20 (JDR) ----------- - added support for HTR mode data Version 1.4 - 2002-01-16 (JDR) ----------- - removed the experimental status tag Version 1.3 - 2001-10-10 (JDR) ----------- - changed parameter name --set to --evlist and --sourceset to --srclist Version 1.2 - 2001-10-01 (JDR) ----------- - updated runtime default filenames Version 1.1 - 2001-08-24 (JDR) ----------- - revised the parameter interface - outputs the new OGIP PHA file format Version 0.10 - 2001-04-11 (JDR) ------------ - updated for rgssources-4.0 Version 0.9 - 2001-03-23 (JDR) ----------- - requires rgslib-1.10 Version 0.8 - 2001-03-09 (JDR) ----------- - does not require EXPOSURE attribute in EVENTS table Version 0.7 - 2001-02-07 (JDR) ----------- - updated for and requires rgslib-1.5 Version 0.6 - 2001-01-10 (JDR) ----------- - updated for and requires rgslib-1.4 Version 0.5 - 2000-12-15 (JDR) ----------- - compiles with optimizer enabled Version 0.4 - 2000-11-03 (JDR) ----------- - requires rgslib-1.2 Version 0.3.2 - 2000-10-27 (JDR) ------------- - updated GROUPS Version 0.3.1 - 2000-10-12 (JDR) ------------- - attributes RGS_DISP and RGS_XDSP added for rgsspecplot (temporary kludge) Version 0.3 - 2000-10-05 (JDR) ----------- - impossibleEvents warning improved and renamed to eventDiscarded Version 0.2 - 2000-09-25 (JDR) ----------- - updated --file parameter default for compatibility with rgsproc-0.82 - changed --edgechannels parameter default from zero to two - command-line interface documented in task description Version 0.1 - 2000-09-19 (JDR) ----------- - directory structure created by pkgmaker - moved here from rgsfluxer-0.8 - fixed bugs associated with negative exposure - removed internal calculation of FOV coordinates - removed parameter --robust, the non-robust algorithm is deprecated - removed temporary parameter --withaltnan - removed GROUPING column
