Output Files

1. The output dataset (outset) consists of a binary table (RGSOFFSETS) with the following columns:
   • TIME, double: number of seconds since the XMM Mission Reference Time.
   • CCD_ID, integer: the CCD identifier
   • NODE_ID, integer: the node identifier
   • CCD_OCB, integer: the CCD on-chip binning factor
   • MEAN, real: the mean of the fitted Gaussian
   • STD_DEV, real: the standard deviation of the fitted Gaussian
   • NORMALIZATION, real: the normalization of the fitted gaussian
   • EUCLIDEAN_NORM, real: the sum of the squares of the residuals
2. The histogram dataset (histogramset) consists of a binary table (pulse_height_spectra) with the following columns:
   • pha, real: the pulse height axis
   • a number of real columns, each containing a pulse height spectrum. Columns have names like phs_0000. The first column corresponds to the first input dataset (first node), the second column correspond to the second node (if applicable), and so on. The mapping of column names to input datasets is recorded in the table comments.
