Special Newbin Windows

Special Newbin Windows operate on Newbins in conjunction with intensity windows in newbins and are specified by changing to positive values global parameters number 13 (par13)and/or 14 (par14). Their use is the following: if e.g. par13 is set =10, all newbins, whose center time is within 10 second before the center time of a newbin rejected by intensity windows, will also be rejected; if e.g. par14 is set =20, all newbins, whose center time is within 20 second after the center time of a newbin rejected by intensity windows, will also be rejected. Special Newbin Windows are particularly useful e.g. to exclude the parts of a light curve which immediately follow or precede a burst or a background event which has been rejected by intensity windows in newbins.
