Libraries
mpfit - NEW LIBRARY
This library implements the public domain MINPACK-1 least squares
fitting routines, as originally authored by the Argonned group,
translated to C by Steven Moshier, and enhanced by C. Markwardt.
Users supply a fitting function, and (optionally) parameter
constraints, and mpfit() performs the least squares fit.
Modifications to tools which were released in Build 4
batbinevt -- CHANGED
The gtifile parameter is now implemented, and the user can specify
arbitrary Good Time Intervals. The "userbin" time binning method is
implemented. Multiple input files are permitted, using
expand_item_list(). Spatial filtering via a detector quality map
(detmask) has been implemented. Outputs have been changed to more
closely adhere to OGIP standards. GTI extensions are written.
Sanity checks are done, to be sure the user has already run
batmaskwtevt and bateconvert.
batcelldetect - SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
The tool produces an output catalog in FITS format.
Point spread fitting is now implemented using the mpfit library.
The shape of the PSF is gaussian.
