Abstract

The X-ray pulsar data processing methods and procedures are introduced. The X-ray basic data format，X-ray original data processing，time analysis，spectrum analysis are described. X-ray data processing are conducted，taking the NASA X-ray detection mission NuSTAR and，some preliminary results are provided. This paper provides a reference for the scholar entering the pulsar navigation and astronomy research field.
