Xray decay from a gamma ray burst
Description
The X-ray decay light curve of Gamma ray burst 050525a obtained with the
X-Ray Telescope (XRT) on board the Swift satellite. The dataset has 63
brightness measurements in the 0.4-4.5 keV spectral band at times ranging
from 2 minutes to 5 days after the burst.
Format
A data frame with 63 observations on the following 3 variables.
- time
in seconds since burst
- flux
X-ray flux in units of 10^-11 erg/cm2/s, 2-10 keV
- error
measurement error of the flux based on detector
signal-to-noise values
