The mean total band flux (0.2-12keV) of the detections in all cameras (Cols. 105, 107, and 103), weighted by the errors, in erg/cm2/s. A camera detection is only included in the calculation of the mean if the flags 1, 5, and 6 are all set False for this camera (see Sec. 3.3.1). This can lead to the situation where EP_FLUX is set NULL for a valid source because none of the camera detections satisfy the above criteria. It is to be treated as an upper limit if the source was not detected but observed with any one camera (for the observed area of each camera see the products exposure maps, see Appendix A.1)

Total band count rate (0.2-12keV) of the PN detection in counts per second, i.e., the sum of the count rates in the individual bands 1 - 5 ( Cols. 172 - 180). All count rate values are determined using the SAS task emldetect, which does a simultaneous maximum likelihood PSF fit to the source count distribution in each energy band (for details see Sec. 3.2.3 f)). The count rate is the total source counts ( Col. 136) divided by an OOT-factor (Out Of Time) and by the exposure map (which combines the mirror vignetting, detector efficiency, bad pixels and CCD gaps, cf. Sec. 3.2.3 f), and http://xmmssc-www.star.le.ac.uk/pubdocs/SSC-LUX-SP-0004.ps.gz, Sec. 6.5.2.6). The OOT-factor depends on the PN modes (see Col. 24 for the modes). The source counts and with it the count rates were implicitly background subtracted during the fitting process.
