This software package is a copy of the package which is available from the ISDC. Known issues with OSA 7.0 can be found here. Known issues with OSA 6.0 can be found here. Technical and scientific support is available via the INTEGRAL help desk, and telephone and e-mail support to U.S. based participants is available through the GSFC INTEGRAL GOF.
The IC, IDX, and CAT Data Trees
A standard INTEGRAL data repository consists of SCW, AUX, IC, IDX, and CAT data branches. The SCW and CAT branches are part of the standard download from the HEASARC or ISDC data archives. The IC, IDX, and CAT branches are necessary to analyze data. These branches can be downloaded from the HEASARC INTEGRAL archive with this PERL script: ic-idx-cat_download. Merely cut-and-paste this script into an executable file in the directory where you wish to create your IC, IDX, and CAT directories (generally where you have previously created your SCW amd AUX directories).
SPI Spectral Analysis Using XSPEC 12
XSPEC 12 is currently available for download from the HEASARC as part of the HEASOFT/HEADAS package. Included in XSPEC 12, which is a major upgrade of the XSPEC package that incorporates the C++ language and object-oriented programming methodologies, is a capability to analyze data from the INTERGAL spectrometer (SPI). We have written a tutorial on how to use XSPEC-12 with INTEGRAL/SPI data. There are also some related TCL scripts, which can be implemented as XSPEC command lines.
