XMM-Newton Science Analysis System . ... A different approach is done via the setting withctisrcpos =Y: all event energy corrections do not use the actual RAWY coordinate but the corresponding RAWY location of the source ( SRCPOS ) as determined by the task epframes (either automatically or via setting withsrccoords =Y). ... The task epchain may be used with the setting ccds =4 withctisrcpos =Y to process only the CCD 4 where usually the bright source is located that causes the Out-of-Time events. ...

The reduction of a given magnitude m to it is given by: . ... The galaxy extraction was made with a Discriminant Analysis based on seven parameters (peak intensity over area, Mean surface brightness, Peak intensity, Axis ratio, Relative surface object/matrix, Elongation of the matrix and Diffraction cross) and calibrated with a sample of 1146 DENIS objects visually classified as "galaxy", "star" or "unknown". A visual inspection of every galaxy candidate was made on the matrix of pixels. ...
