XMM spectra of eruptions and quiescence used in the paper titled "Alive and Strongly Kicking: Stable X-ray Quasi-Periodic Eruptions from eRO-QPE2 over 3.5 Years"

The gz file has a folder containing 10 sets of spectra (two per XMMID: one using data from eruptions and one from quiescence). Each one has a corresponding rmf, arf and a background file.

The files of the format:  PN_Grouped_spectrumXX...fits are xspec ready. They are grouped with specgroup task of XMMSAS with mincounts=1 oversample=3. Thus, cstat is recommended while fitting in XSPEC.

Alternatively, the original source spectra (PN_SPEC_SRCBKGXXX...fits) are also available so that the user can bin them as per their requirement.

The background spectra have the following naming sequence: PN_SPEC_BKGXX

XX = "hi" ==> eruption spectra

XX = "low" ==> quiescence spectra

The numbers 1...5 correspond to XMM obsIDs as follows:

1: 0872390101

2: 0883770201

3: 0893810501

4: 0932590101

5: 0932590201
