Noise dominated fraction
Noise dominated data is calculated using 1-second bins in cleaned event files. If a bin has >2000 counts, and if more than 50% of those come from <1% of pixels, then it is considered to be noise-dominated and hence unusable.

Comparison with Poisson distribution
Blue bars denote a histogram of data divided into 1 sec bins.
Red curve is a Poisson curve with rate = median count rate of data. |
