SPIBOUNDS

The executable spibounds is used to construct energy boundaries to be used for the binning of SPI event data.

Options include uniform linear or logarithmic spacing, as well as superimposing sub-regions (e.g. of finer spacing) over a global binning scheme such that you can investigate more carefully particular spectral regions (e.g., for spectral regions likely to contain line emission).

Table: spibounds parameters included into the main script
     
Name Name Type Description
(main script) (executable)    
spibounds_nregions nregions integer Number of regions for which distinct binning algorithms are to be defined.

example: 4

spibounds_regions regions string The boundaries of the energy regions.

example: ``20,40,100,1000,8000''

spibounds_nbins nbins string The number of bins per region. Negative numbers indicate logarithmically spaced bins.

example: ``-10,-10,-9,-7''
