j_bin_lc

The j_bin_lc script bins event data into lightcurves in different energy bands. There are two possible outputs of this program: normal lightcurves and period-folded lightcurves. In the case of nPhaseBins=0 Data Structures JMXi-DETE-LCR-IDX and JMXi-DETE-LCR are filled. JMXi-DETE-LCR contains a countrate lightcurve for the whole JEM-Xi detector binned from event or countrate data.

In the case nPhaseBins 0 Data Structures JMXi-DETE-FLC-IDX and JMXi-DETE-FLC are filled. JMXi-DETE-FLC contains a countrate lightcurve folded with a given period for the whole JEM-Xi2 detector binned from event or countrate data.
