On exploring finer bin SRMs, it is noticed that having finer incident energy bins makes a difference to the predicted count spectrum in STIX for the same model, especially at low energies. Including new transmission files with finer binning to generate SRM files with finer incident energy bins of 10 eV in the 2-20 keV energy range and 100 eV in the 20-160 keV energy range and updates in the code to read from the new files. The transmission files are generated from stixpy by modifying the energy values in stixpy.calibration.transmission.generate_transmission_tables(). When this is merged, maybe this small change in stixpy may also be merged for consistency.
There are small differences in temperature (slight increase) and emission measure obtained with the new finer bin SRM compared to the previous versions.
