E.19 Swift BAT Software Build 21: 2007 Jun 26
1. Overview
This build contains one new task, and several improvements and fixes
to many tasks. It also discusses several non-BAT-related tasks which
are delivered by the BAT team.
All unit tests pass (except one on Solaris), and are based on a *NEW*
version of the BAT CALDB, which can be found as described below.
2. Summary of tool changes
New tool
batphasimerr
* This task estimates the statistical uncertainties for simulated
spectra, which XSPEC is not capable of doing properly.
Revised tools
batbinevt
* New ’timepixr’ parameter which controls the alignment of the
TIME value in each time bin.
* Handle survey DPHs with more than one GTI per row.
