Abstract
AbstractWe discuss pulse height analysis of Be band data in relation to the important 72 eV Fe line cluster emission from the soft X-ray background (SXRB). Pulse height fits to the Be band data suggest that the Fe lines must be suppressed by a factor of ~10 with respect to the rest of the X-ray spectrum. The broad band rates and the mean energy of the pulse height data for the Be band can be brought into agreement by using depleted elemental abundance emission models. A planned measurement of the SXRB Fe lines using the Array of Low Energy X-ray Imaging Sensors (ALEXIS) experiment could resolve this issue.
