Hardness Ratios and Quantiles

Hardness ratios and quantiles are calculated from the predicted ACIS-S or ACIS-I aimpoint spectra, as indicated.

Hardness Ratios
Aimpoint	HR₁ = (H-M)/(H+M)	HR₂ = (M-S)/(M+S)	HR₃ = (H-S)/(H+S)
ACIS-S	-0.745	0.029	-0.731
ACIS-I	-0.683	0.171	-0.580

S, M, and H represent the predicted total counts in the following passbands:

S: 0.3-0.9 keV

M: 0.9-1.5 keV

H: 1.5-8.0 keV

Quantiles
Aimpoint	Quantiles	25 %	25 % Error	50 %	50 % Error	75 %	75 % Error
ACIS-S	keV	0.796	0.011	0.927	0.007	1.102	0.016
ACIS-S	Q-norm	0.064	0.001	0.081	0.001	0.104	0.002
ACIS-I	keV	0.854	0.010	0.971	0.011	1.181	0.019
ACIS-I	Q-norm	0.072	0.001	0.087	0.001	0.114	0.002

Normalized quantiles (Q-norm) are defined as:

Q_x = (E_x - E_lo)/(E_hi - E_lo)

Where E_lo = 0.3 keV and E_hi = 8.0 keV.
