Chandra Sgr A* light curves from 2012 to 2018

<p>300s binned 2-8 keV Chandra light curves of Sgr A*. The event lists needed to produce these plots are obtained by reducing the raw data using standard CIAO tools. The extraction region is a small radius 1.25&quot; circular region centered around the radio position of the Sgr A*. For gratings observations (from the X-ray Visionary Program (XVP)), we use&nbsp;0th and +/- 1st order counts, with&nbsp;grating order tolerance of +/- 0.2. The first order counts are extracted&nbsp;from a rectangular box with a 5 pixel (2.5&quot;) width also centered on the source.</p> <p>The red horizontal lines are Bayesian Blocks calibrated on signal-free Poisson light curves with a false alarm probability, p₀, of 5%. Their error bars are Poisson errors.&nbsp;Identified flares are isolated by blue vertical lines.</p>
