Hello chandra-users,
The CIAO team is pleased to announce the 25 February 2011 release of the
CIAO contributed science tarfile. The new tarfile may be download via
ciao-install (http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/download/) or from the CIAO
Contributed Scripts Page (http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/download/scripts/).
The changes in this release are:
o) chandra_repro
http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/ahelp/chandra_repro.html
Support has been added for ACIS and HRC grating data.
o) specextract
http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/ahelp/specextract.html
* the asp parameter can now take the aspect solution file directly.
An aspect histogram (created by asphist) may still be used, if desired.
* the mask file is applied when making unweighted ARFs (mkarf).
* if the bad pixel file is supplied in the badpixfile parameter, the
ardlib parameters are set by the script.
* if the input file is missing a CTI_APP keyword, the script
attempts to add it
* the binwmap parameter default has been changed from det=8 to tdet=8
o) combine_spectra
http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/ahelp/combine_spectra.html
Fixed a bug where lists of input spectra containing duplicate
filenames were not being correctly combined, e.g. a list of source
spectra all having the same name, located in different directories.
o) ciao_contrib.runtool
updated to better support the ardlib parameter file
o) sherpa_contrib.profiles
updated to support the use of model expressions created using the
set_full_model command.
