Ginga Specific Software: Program NORMCB



Purpose

Program normcb performs the following normalisations:

  1. Normalises the summed count rate of every ident in a Ginga CUBE to unity
  2. Normalises the summed count rate of every time bin and ident in a cube to unity
  3. Normalises the summed count rate of every spectral channel and ident in a cube to unity


Input File

A Ginga CUBE, TIME series or PHAD file.


Output File

A Ginga CUBE, TIME series or PHAD file.


Input Parameters

Normcb requires three input parameters. The QX parameter system is used to read these parameters.

NCB_DATIN The name of the input CUBE, TIME series or PHAD file.
NCB_DATOUT The name of the output file.
NCB_TYPE Type of normalisation. If NCB_TYPE=ALL then the count rate of every ident is normalised to the summed count rate across the spectral and temporal axes. If NCB_TYPE=PHAD then the count rate of every time bin and ident is normalised to the summed count rate across the spectral axis. If NCB_TYPE=TIME then the count rate of every spectral channel and ident is normalised to the summed count rate across the temporal axis.
