j_src_extract_lc

This application extracts energy-binned light curves for each found point source in the FOV. Background subtraction is an integral part of the data extraction. Since OSA v11.0 the user has the choice to create lightcurve with the ``old'' method, invocking executable j_src_lc, or by means of the new functionalities added to j_ima_iros.

In both cases the resulting (binned) lightcurves for a given source and a given energy range of the JEM-Xi instrument, will have the same data structure JMXi-SRC.-LCR (see Table 53)

Table 53: Content of JMXi-SRC.-LCR Data Structure.

Column Name	Description
TIME	Time of measurement for the bin
TIMEDEL	Integration time for the bin
RATE	Countrate in the given energy band
ERROR	Countrate error in the the given energy band
BRATE	Background countrate in the given energy band
BERROR	Background countrate error in the given energy band
BARYTIME	Barycentric time for the bin
