Burst Example

This page shows an example page for a burst. Under development

SLX 1737-282

MJD 53073.72133 - 2004 Mar 09 17:18:43 - JEM-X1 - SCW 017100750010

This page displays the lightcurve and parameters in MINBAR DR1 for this event (Galloway et al. 2020).

This plot shows the segment of the 1-s binned lightcurve surrounding the event. Shaded regions indicate the error range for the count rate. The plot is resizeable; just click and drag on the figure area with the mouse. Double-click to restore the original shape. The figure in the box at the lower-left is the window size for the rolling average

Time-resolved spectroscopy

This is not time-resolved spectroscopy of the above burst, but is included to demonstrate what the plot would look like if available

The figure shows the results of time-resolved spectroscopic analysis. The estimated bolometric flux is plotted as green symbols & line, in units of 10-9 erg cm-2 s-1 (inner left-hand y-scale). The blackbody temperature kT is shown as purple symbols & line (right-hand y-axis, units of keV) and the normalisation as the aqua symbols & line (outermost left-hand y-scale, units of R2/d2, where R is the emitting radius in km, and d the distance to the source in units of 10 kpc).

This version of the data now includes deadtime correction (see http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/xte/recipes/pca_deadtime.html) and has the updated effective area of the v11.7 responses (see http://www.universe.nasa.gov/xrays/programs/rxte/pca/doc/rmf/pca-arf-2011

All uncertainties are at 1-sigma (68%) confidence. Note that the time value specifies the MIDPOINT of the time bin
