Good afternoon, I am trying to estimate the sky flux from a telescope module. After binning the data with `evtool`, I calculated the (vignetting-corrected) exposure maps using `expmap`. In order to obtain a flux estimate (in units of e.g., 1/(sec*cm^2)), I would then need the effective area for this...

Dear Miriam,

Thank you for your answer, this is what I needed.

All the best,

Dear Miriam, Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately, I still have some additional questions. I am looking at EDR data, specifically at the LMC_SN1987A dataset (but I have observed the same also with eFEDS). When I look into the CORATTx extensions of the data files (e.g. pm00_700161_020_EventList_c...

Hi everyone, I was able to find the mean/median (?) pointing information of the instrument in the eROSITA FITS file for a EDR dataset. Where can I find the module specific pointing information (e.g. the module-specific deviation from the mean/median specified in the EVENTS file)? Thank you very much...

Dear Alain, dear Ian,

Thank you very much for your answer.
Filtering by EVENTS extension solved the issue.

Cheers,
Matteo

Dear support team, I am trying to get exposures for three event files (from EDR, see code below) that I have previously combined with evtool into the "combined_out_08_1.fits" image. When running 'evtool' I get the following error. expmap "/LMC_SN1987A/fm00_700203_020_EventList_c001.fi...

Hi, From the apetool documentation one can read "The PSF of the eROSITA is modeled using shapelet functions and their corresponding coefficients. This shapelet model, stored in an appropriate calibration file, describes how the shape of the PSF changes as function of energy and position on the ...

Dear Miriam, dear Alain, Thank you for your replies. Indeed running it on a single energy band works and also allocating more memory helps. When trying to run the WHOLE demo script though, it looks like it gets stuck in one of the multiple iterations (macOS - DOCKER). This is not really an issue for...

Dear All,

Ermldet is only partially working in the docker.
It takes a tremendous amount of time before failing.

Does anyone know the fix?
Thank you in advance.

All the best,
Matteo

Dear Alain,

Yes, this indeed solved the problem with the Evtool in the demoscript.
Thank you very much.

Best,
Matteo
