...
- The spectra are extracted from 3-6 arcmin annulus, centered on the cluster center
- The scripts use a 1-temperature phabs x mekal model.
- The column density is from Kalberla et al. (2005) and the absorption cross-sections are from Balucinska-Church & McCammon (1992).
- The scripts use the metal abundance table from Grevesse & Sauval (1998).

Triangulum Suzaku/XIS0 Suzaku/XIS1 Suzaku/XIS3
The script files xisX_Y_3_6_am_circ_newcal_Z_mekalfit.xcm will set up the best fit. In more detail:
- "X" refers to XIS unit (0,1, or 3)
- "Y" is the cluster name
- "Z" refers to the band used in the fit (0520 = 0.5-2.0 keV; 2070 = 2.0-7.0 keV
JOINT FIT
(For each cluster all XIS instruments fitted simultaneously, allowing Oxygen column density of the contaminant to vary, see Tables 5 and 6 in Kettula et al., 2013)
