... This is generally not a problem for point sources but for regions of extended emission it can cause an extracted spectrum to be a mix of flux from different areas of an object. It may be possible to disentangle the true sky emission by simultaneously fitting different spectral files. In this case an ARF giving the expected contribution (effective area) of flux received in one area from a different area is needed. ...

One could then define the unit of current, as the current which, when flowing in a straight wire, attracts a similar current in a parallel wire 1 meter away with a force of unit strength, for every meter of the wires' length. ... Faraday also showed that a magnetic field which varied in time--like the one produced by an alternating current (AC)--could drive electric currents, if (say) copper wires were placed in it in the appropriate way. ...
