Methods

Currently, only the Corner Method described above operates as required. This method effectively cuts the light curve at some number of sigma above the mean nominal level.

One future ``method'' may include one that determines a fixed count rate plus some ``delta''. In this case, the high energy count rate, say 8-12 keV, is created and the user selects an appropriate threshold. This will be the ``delta method''. This method should be able to select the light curve produced by the PPS which are point source excluded (*FBKTSR* files).

The other future method performs a ratio screening which compares the count-rate per unit area in the obscured corners of the detector to the same in the FOV using the 8-12 keV band.

The task leaves open the possibility to add new "methods" in future releases.
