Frequently Asked Questions
What software can I use to analyze this data?
Why does the resolution appear to be non-uniform in many of the images?
Why are the
Chandra
events not at the normal resolution? Where are the chips?
Why is background not included in the simulated X-ray event files?
Why do I sometimes see colored circles circling around instead of the images?
You didn’t include projections in my favorite wavelength range. Why not?
I have some really cool data I’d like to include in the catalog. How can I do this?
I downloaded one of the simulations in its entirety but I’m having some trouble unzipping the file. I’m on a Mac.
How do I cite the catalog?
Is the data licensed?
Where was the data generated?
I found a problem! How do I report it?
I have a question that isn’t answered here. How do I get more information?
