Dear ccp4bb,

I sometimes find the flux of x-ray sources reported in units of "photons/s/0.1% 
bandwidth" instead of simply "photons/s".
Where does the "1/0.1% bandwidth" unit come from? I have also seen other 
percentages like 0.01% bw  or 0.02% bw...
Is it simply defining some degree of acceptance in energy (for example, the 
flux between 8 KeV +/- 8 eV for a given stored current)? Does it somehow have 
to do with energy resolution?
Thank you in advance for your answers,

-Andre Ambrosio
