EXSdetect: an end-to-end software for extended source detection in X-ray images: application to Swift-XRT data

Aims. We present a stand-alone software (named EXSdetect) for the detection of extended sources in X-ray images. Our goal is to provide a flexible tool capable of detecting extended sources down to the lowest flux levels attainable within instrumental limitations, while maintaining robust photometry...
