Daxa

Summary

A new feature has been added to DAXA - the XMMPointed class will automatically fail over from accessing observation info, and downloading observations, through AstroQuery/XSA to accessing/downloading from HEASARC, in the case where AstroQuery cannot connect to the internet. We have observed this problem on some HPCs, with compute node proxy configurations not allowing the connection.

We have also fixed a small unintended behaviour - Chandra processing and archive assembly through DAXA will now keep the mask file, rather than deleting it.

Summary

* Now that some data are publically available, a XRISMPointed mission class has been added to DAXA (though data cannot be re-processed yet).

* A convenience function that will search all available missions for data for your objects has been added, and a very closely related function can search all missions, and then make an archive automatically

Main Takeaway

A small but very impactful bug, where processing XMM data and using DAXA to generate images/exposure maps would leave one of the output image/expmap files replaced by a CCF (but with an image-type name) has been fixed. There have also been some general bug fixes, and incomplete work on NuSTAR processing has been added.

Important points

A bug that made it impossible to process any eROSITA data from scratch has been fixed. We also allow the Swift class to fetch roll-angle information from the online table and include it in the obs_info table.

Summary

Some small bug fixes which impacted eROSITA missions, and an unintentional incorrect unit on the definition of the Swift BAT nominal FoV. The major change is that archives are now easily updatable with new observations (if they become available). They can simply be re-loaded in the usual DAXA way, and then the 'update()' method can be called - this will reapply the stored filtering operations used for each mission instance (with the same configuration, in the same order) and then run any processing steps that were applied, in the same order and with the same configuration.
