One of the largest uncertainties in the Point Source (PS) studies, at Fermi-LAT energies, is the uncertainty in the diffuse background. In general there are two approaches for PS analysis: background-dependent methods, that include modeling of the diffuse background, and background-independent methods. In this work we study PGWave, which is one of the background-independent methods, based on wavelet filtering to find significant clusters of gamma rays. PGWave is already used in the Fermi-LAT catalog pipeline for finding candidate sources. We test PGWave, not only for source detection, but especially to estimate the flux without the need of a background model. We use Monte Carlo (MC) simulation to study the accuracy of PS detection and estimation of the flux. We present preliminary results of these MC studies.
Context: The eROSITA X-ray telescope onboard the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) satellite has started to observe new X-ray sources over the full sky at an unprecedented rate. Understanding the selection function of the source detection is important to
We present the 2SXPS (Swift-XRT Point Source) catalog, containing 206,335 point sources detected by the Swift X-ray Telescope (XRT) in the 0.3--10 keV energy range. This catalog represents a significant improvement over 1SXPS, with double the sky cov
We have obtained a deep 8-field XMM-Newton mosaic of M33 covering the galaxy out to the D$_{25}$ isophote and beyond to a limiting 0.2--4.5 keV unabsorbed flux of 5$times$10$^{-16}$ erg cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ (L${>}$4$times$10$^{34}$ erg s$^{-1}$ at the
This paper provides an overview of the PACS photometer flux calibration concept, in particular for the principal observation mode, the scan map. The absolute flux calibration is tied to the photospheric models of five fiducial stellar standards (alph
The PAMELA satellite-borne experiment is providing first direct measurements of Solar Energetic Particles (SEPs) with energies from $sim$80 MeV to several GeV in near-Earth space. Its unique observational capabilities include the possibility of measu
