Distribution

T90 vs. Hardness ratio plot

T90                                   = 22.8 sec.
Hardness ratio (energy fluence ratio) = 0.890573956344

S(15-50 keV) vs. S(50-150 keV) plot

S(15-50 keV)  = 3.533938e-07
S(50-150 keV) = 2.6590809e-07

The dash-dotted line and the dashed line traces the fluences calculated from the Band function with Epeak = 15 and 150 keV, respectively. Both lines assume a canonical values of alpha = -1 and beta = -2.5.
