Answer (答え)

  • The tool, xisrmfgen, does not support the PHA file whose WMAP is written in X and Y. Please use DETX, DETY in making your PHA file, s_X0_reg1.fits, by using
    set WMAPNAME DETX DETY
    command in "xselect" phase.
  • Another method to avoid the problem is to use
    phafile=none
    option in xisrmfgen. In this case, we need the observation date in the process.
